Leonard Keller received the Medal of Honor in 1968. At today's event, dozens of decorated cars and Stateline groups braced the rain, right behind him. Keller was drafted to serve in Vietnam at the age of 19. He says its an honor to come back to town and be apart of an American tradition.
Keller just retired from the Navy. And lives with his wife in Pensacola, Florida.
