Tomahawk honors hometown, national hero

TOMAHAWK - On Monday, the people of Tomahawk celebrated a very special member of the community. Army Sgt. Einar Ingman, Jr. turned 85. The celebration wasn't about the long life he's lived, but rather about how he's lived it. Sgt. Ingman is the only living Korean War Medal of Honor recipient from Wisconsin. And Monday, he received another special honor.

"Tomahawk isn't that very big of a community and you never can tell where heroes are going to come from. And he's ours," said celebration attendee Chuck Grigg.
