Last week’s coverage of the posthumous awarding of the Medal of Honor to Clinton County native Garlin Murl Conner, has left many readers searching for more information about the military history of 1LT Conner, as well as more about the ceremonies surrounding the event in Washington D.C.
Local attorney L.C. Hoppy Conner, one of the team members who pursued the Medal of Honor for Conner, has assembled a series of web sites that continue to update information surrounding the award, history and the ceremonies.
Conner provided that information for the Clinton County News to release to our readers.
Following are websites containing information concerning Garlin Murl Conner, Medal of Honor recipient.
The Army maintains a dedicated website for each Medal of Honor recipient. Garlin Murl Conner’s website contains his personal information, military records, news articles, video of the White House and Pentagon ceremonies as well as still photographs.
The site will be updated from time to time; so one should continue to log on to the site occasionally.
