The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Sergeant First Class Harry L. Conway (ASN: ER-16210982), United States Army, for gallantry in action while a member of Company A, 32d Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division, in action against an armed enemy, near Inje, Korea, on 13 April 1951. Sergeant Conway’s platoon was given the mission of securing an enemy-held hill. The enemy aided by defense smoke and haze, successfully repulsed two attacks on their positions. As the heavy smoke and haze hampered the observation of the platoon, Sergeant Conway crawled forward to within twenty-five yards of the summit of the hill to reconnoiter the enemy positions. Engaging the enemy with his carbine and hand grenades, he was successful in destroying two of their positions. When he had expended his ammunition, Sergeant Conway withdrew and directed the fire of heavy machine guns, and employed rifle grenades against the well-entrenched enemy. Later, while leading his platoon on a third assault on the enemy positions, Sergeant Conway was wounded by fragments from an enemy hand grenade. Despite his wounds, he continued leading his men on to the top of the hill, in this instance, dislodging the enemy and forcing their withdrawal. The gallantry displayed by Sergeant Conway reflects great credit on himself and the military service.
