Soldiers from the unit prepared the room for his visit and ceremony where he received the French Legion of Honor, the highest decoration bestowed in France. Jarvis was honored for his actions on June 6, 1944, when he landed on the beaches of Normandy with the Virginia National Guard’s 111th Field Artillery Regiment, 29th Infantry Division.
