John Henry Bond

Just curious: Is John Henry Bond, the 100-strength defender of Newton in the Battle of Wichita, based on a real person? Google turned up nothing.

Yep! He was a real person. A Newton resident and World War II vet.

Very cool! Does anyone know why he and Newton were chosen for this honor?
