McCullough participates in honoring ceremony

On March 29, Ken McCullough, assistant director of Academic Advising and director of the PASS program, represented the Winona-Dakota Unity Alliance at an honoring ceremony on the Sisseton-Wahpeton reservation (South Dakota) for Woodrow Wilson Keeble, who received the Congressional Medal of Honor for actions in the Korean War. Keeble also served in the Pacific during World War II, and was wounded a total of 13 times. Keeble was nominated twice during the 1950s but the paperwork was lost on both occasions. The persistence of his family and state legislators helped bring this process to fruition 60 years after the fact and 26 years after Keeble’s death. Keeble is only the third Native American to receive the Medal of Honor.
