Glenn Andreotta American Hero

The following information is taken from: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.... The Soldiers Medal He was awarded the Soldiers Medal in 1998 along with the two other US Army soldiers who intervened March 16, 1968 in the village of My Lai. The Soldier's Medal is awarded to any person of the Armed Forces of the United States or of a friendly foreign nation who, while serving in any capacity with the Army of the United States, distinguished himself or herself by heroism not involving actual conflict with an enemy. At the ceremonial presentation of the award some 30 years after My Lai, then Major General Michael Ackerman stated "It was the ability to do the right thing even at the risk of their personal safety that guided these soldiers to do what they did" and "set the standard for all soldiers to follow." At My Lai Hugh Thompson's description was "Glenn Andreotta—if there was a hero, I don't like that word, but if there was a hero at My Lai—it was Glenn Andreotta, because he saw movement in that ditch, and he fixed in on this one little kid and went down into that ditch. I would not want to go in that ditch. It's not pretty. It was very bad. I can imagine what was going through his mind down there, because there was more than one still alive—people grabbing hold of his pants, wanting help. 'I can't help you. You're too bad [off].' He found this one kid and brought the kid back up and handed it to Larry, and we laid it across Larry and my lap and took him out of there. I remember thinking Glenn Andreotta put himself where nobody in their right mind would want to be, and he was driven by something. I haven't got the aircraft on the ground real stable. He bolted out of that aircraft into this ditch. Now he was a hero. Glenn Andreotta gave his life for his country about three weeks later. That's the kind of guy he was, and he was a hero that day."
