    An older gentleman wearing a dark blazer and displaying a large medal on his chest stands alongside a man in Clemson Tigers coaching attire (white shirt, purple shorts, orange cap) on an indoor practice field. They are surrounded by a large group of football players in orange Clemson uniforms seated and kneeling on the turf. The setting appears to be an official team event or ceremony at Clemson University's indoor football facility.

    Medal of Honor recipient Maj. Gen. Patrick Brady visited Clemson University during the school’s Military Appreciation Week, Oct. 31, 2019. Brady spoke to ROTC cadets and the football team (seen here with head coach Dabo Swinney), donated some books to Clemson’s archives, and participated in Military Appreciation Day events. Brady received the nation’s highest award for valor for actions Near Chu Lai, Republic of Vietnam, January 6, 1968 as the pilot of a UH-1H ambulance helicopter, known as a “Dustoff.” Over the course of many hours Brady utilized three helicopters (after the first two were rendered unflyable because of damage from enemy fire) to evacuate 51 seriously wounded men, many of whom would have died without prompt medical treatment.
