This undated photo provided by the Wisconsin Historical Society shows First Lt. Alonzo H. Cushing. President Barack Obama is bestowing the nation's highest military honor on the Union Army officer who was killed more than 150 years ago in the Battle of Gettysburg. Cushing died in July 1863 while standing his ground against Pickett's Charge. Congress had to grant an exemption for Cushing, since recommendations for a Medal of Honor must be made within two years of an act of heroism. (Associated Press/Wisconsin Historical Society)
