John J. Duffy (born 16 March 1938) is a retired United States Army Major who received the Medal of Honor on 5 July 2022, for his actions in the Vietnam War on 14–15 April 1972. Duffy served four combat tours in South Vietnam. In 1972, Duffy served as a special advisor with the Military Assistance Command Vietnam (MACV) Advisory Team 162, known as the “Red Hats”. On 14 April 1972, during the North Vietnamese Easter Offensive, following a rocket and artillery barrage, the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) 320th Division attacked Firebase Charlie 10 km from Dak To. Despite airstrikes and helicopter gunship support, Duffy and the 11th Airborne Battalion defenders were forced to abandon the base that night.
