Georgia Military College is proud to announce the 2026 Hall of Heroes inductee:
Specialist Fourth Class Wheeler
Johnny Cecil Wheeler came to Milledgeville from St. Marys, Georgia, graduating from Georgia Military College junior college in 1961. After completing his time at GMC, he returned home, married his beloved wife Beatrice, and began building a life rooted in family, humility, and service. Though he lived quietly, Johnny Wheeler’s life reflected the very ideals that Georgia Military College strives to instill in its cadets—Duty, Honor, and Country.
