She also attended the White House ceremony Nov. 6, and was recognized by President Obama. Zerwekh did research on Cushing's service in the Civil War. She was certain his valorous actions merited the Medal of Honor and lobbied her congressmen for decades to make it happen. She became interested in Cushing's story while living on property in Wisconsin that was once owned by his father. (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Bernardo Fuller/Released)
