John Peña (left), grandson of Medal of Honor recipient Master Sgt. Mike C. Peña, 5th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Cavalry Division, walked 64 miles to present his grandfather's Medal of Honor to his father and Master Sgt. Peña's son, Michael (seen in white shirt), during a ceremony at the Cedarvale Cemetery in Bay City, Texas, June 8, 2014, where Master Sgt. Peña buried. John and three of his comrades walked 64 miles over four days to signify the 64 years since his grandfather died in the Korean War, and to signify the 64 years it took before Master Sgt. Peña was awarded the Medal of Honor. A Medal of Honor memorial headstone for Master Sgt. Peña was unveiled at the cemetery. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. 1st Class Jeremy D.
