Army Lt. Gen. Henry H. Shelton lauded President Clinton for his Haiti mission role, saying the actions saved hundreds of lives. Clinton decorated Shelton with the Army Distinguished Service Medal in the White House Rose Garden. Six enlisted personnel also received medals for their roles. Former President Carter, Gen. Colin Powell, and Sen. Sam Nunn helped persuade Haiti’s rulers not to resist, a task Shelton called a true team effort.
