Vernon Baker: The Forgotten WWII Hero Who Finally Got His Medal
Vernon Baker was a trailblazing African American officer in the U.S. Army during World War II. His heroic actions during a 1945 mission in Italy demonstrated leadership, bravery, and self-sacrifice. Despite his valor, racial discrimination denied him the Medal of Honor for decades. In 1997, Baker finally received the nation’s highest military award from President Bill Clinton, becoming the only living Black WWII veteran to be so honored. This short documentary explores Baker’s legacy, the struggles of Black soldiers in WWII, and the long path to justice in military history.
