Allene Carter's father-in-law was a decorated veteran. Yet it
was not until the Carter family received a call from the White
House that she discovered he was a heroic force in the Rhineland
campaign. President Clinton awarded the Medal of Honor to several
black soldiers who served in World War II. Sergeant Edward A.
Carter Jr. was among the recipients. Shocked to learn the extent of
Carter's service, Allene was determined to uncover both the truth
about her father-in-law's wartime record and why his official
recognition was so long in coming.
Here is the story not only of Sergeant Carter but also of his
family's fight to restore his honor. Theirs is a journey that takes
them from local veterans organizations to the office of the
president and front pages of the national media. An important piece
of American history, "Honoring Sergeant Carter" is an enduring
story of determination and family love.
