Default 14 US troops receive German medals for bravery
Here is some good news that didn't directly make it into the Army Times.

Sgt Gattis is from our unit and worked on Rear D for a bit, he is one of the most humble and kind people I have met. I think it is wonderful that they were honored with this medal, it is the equivalent of the American Medal of Honor. This is a big deal and should get more attention. When Sgt Gattis returns he will surely get a heros welcome from our unit.
