The son of an Erwin resident was honored during a posthumous Honorary Green Beret Induction Ceremony in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, on July 20. Sgt. 1st Class Jeremiah Johnson, a chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear specialist with the 3rd Special Forces Group, Airborne, was killed in action on Oct. 4, 2017, in Niger after their formation was overwhelmed with enemy contact. Jeremiah Johnson and Sgt. LaDavid Johnson, a wheeled vehicle mechanic who was also killed during the attack, were both awarded Green Berets during the ceremony by Lt. Gen. Francis Beaudette, Army Special Operations Command commanding general. “These men represent the very finest our nation has ever produced, stalwart in their dedication to duty, selfless in every aspect of act and of deed, valorous in the face of overwhelming odds and danger, and committed to freeing the oppressed,” Beaudette said.
