Fallen Marine Cpl. Humberto Sanchez, of Logansport, will receive the Congressional Gold Medal. President Biden signed the bill Thursday that awards the medal to Sanchez and the 12 other soldiers killed in an attack on Aug. 26 at the airport in Kabul, Afghanistan. It’s the highest honor Congress awards. Every member of Indiana’s congressional delegation backed the measure.
