The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 2, 1926, takes pleasure in presenting the Soldier’s Medal to Second Lieutenant Kilma Sibimoat Lattin, United States Army, for heroism at the risk of life not involving conflict with an armed enemy above and beyond the call of duty on 17 April 2003. Second Lieutenant Lattin exhibited unparalleled heroism by sacrificing his personal safety and risking his own life to save the life of a woman who was fully engulfed in flames. Despite injuries repeatedly sustained during his instantaneous response, Second Lieutenant Lattin used his body to extinguish the fire and save the woman’s life. His unhesitating bravery and selfless action in the face of life-threatening danger are hallmarks of true heroic conduct and an example of being truly “Above the Best.” Second Lieutenant Lattin’s actions reflect great credit upon himself, Delta Company, 1-145th Aviation Regiment, and the United States Army.
