The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Bronze Star Medal with Combat “V” to Private First Class Dale F. Sill, Jr., United States Army, for heroic achievement while serving with Medical Company, 27th Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division in Korea. On 20 September 1950, Private First Class Sill was serving as a member of a four-man litter team attached to a rifle company which was attacking in the vicinity of Chingdong-ni, Korea. When the attack was temporarily halted by intense hostile mortar, small arms and automatic weapons fire, the team rolled through the concerted fire to the forward positions to evacuate the wounded. Making repeated trips to the forward areas they evacuated all casualties, then carried them five miles over precipitous mountain trails to safety. Private First Class Sill’s courage, determination and selfless regard for the welfare of his comrades reflect the highest credit on himself and the Army Medical Service.
