| Fascinating story. After reading about the Jewish vets who didn't receive MOHs, I need to look into Bernie Schneider's reco for his Silver Star. While wounded himself, he dragged a number of other wounded (I think 11, IIRC) to safety while under constant rifle, automatic machine gun and mortar fire.
