This bill authorizes the award of a Congressional Gold Medal to Chad Robichaux, Sarah Verardo, Tim Kennedy, Kevin Rourke, Sean Gabler, Dave Johnson, and Dennis Price. This honor recognizes their extraordinary efforts and selfless dedication during the 2021 Afghanistan evacuation, which resulted in the safe evacuation of over 17,000 individuals from Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. The bill highlights Chad Robichaux's initiative to rescue his combat interpreter, leading him to assemble a team of Special Operations veterans and Sarah Verardo. This team mobilized rapidly, with Chad establishing a humanitarian center while others, including Tim Kennedy, Kevin Rourke, Sean Gabler, and Dave Johnson, conducted non-stop rescue operations at Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA). Their initial efforts at HKIA led to the rescue of over 12,000 lives within ten days, despite immense danger. Following the initial evacuation, the team continued remote humanitarian efforts, facilitating the rescue of an additional 5,000 individuals through alternate routes. Furthermore, Chad Robichaux, alongside Dennis Price, undertook a perilous reconnaissance mission along the Tajikistan-Afghanistan border, establishing crucial evacuation routes still in use today. These combined actions underscore their unwavering commitment to protecting vulnerable individuals. After its presentation, the gold medal will be given to the Smithsonian Institution for display and research, with Congress expressing a desire for it to be displayed outside of Washington D.C. The Secretary of the Treasury is also authorized to strike and sell duplicate bronze medals to the public.
