On that date, Specialist Cebreros’ Stryker was stuck by an improvised explosives device which resulted in seven wounded Soldiers. Without regard for his personal safety, Specialist Cebreros evacuated casualties three separate times under intense enemy small arms fire. His gallant actions and dedicated devotion to duty, without regard for his own life, were in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army.
