For ten years now, Ken Moffett has been advancing the package for an upgrade to the Medal of Honor for Capt. Bill Albracht. His heroics in Vietnam at Fire Base Kate in 1969 have been the subject of a book "Abandoned in Hell" and a documentary "Escape from Fire Base Kate."  Ken explains how he got started on this mission and the roadblocks he has encountered. Moffett explains the battle facts he has uncovered, the eyewitness testimony he has gathered, and the challenges of having the Army consider the upgrade. Host Jim Fausone calls the men who advance MOH packages "Sherpas" as they carry a load up a hill trying to guide the package to a successful upgrade. No easy task.
