The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross to Sergeant Woodrow Luis Weaver (ASN: RA-14086732), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy of the United Nations while serving with Company C, 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry Regiment, 3d Infantry Division. Sergeant Weaver distinguished himself by extraordinary heroism in action against enemy aggressor forces near Uijongbu, Korea, on 23 March 1951. On that date, Company C had the mission of attacking and seizing Hill 155, located in the vicinity of Uijongbu. Due to the intensity of enemy fire, the attack faltered and the friendly forces were temporarily halted. Sergeant Weaver, with complete disregard for his own safety, left his position of cover and advanced alone toward the enemy emplacements. As he approached the hostile positions, intense grenade and rifle fire was directed at him. Pressing forward despite the extreme danger, he tossed grenades into the hostile positions and engaged several of the enemy in hand-to-hand combat, killing them. Sergeant Weaver then continued to move toward the crest of the hill, neutralizing other enemy positions as he advanced. His actions were so inspiring to the remainder of the company that his comrades stormed the hostile positions, overwhelming the enemy troops, and securing the objective. The extraordinary heroism displayed by Sergeant Weaver reflects the highest credit upon himself and is in keeping with the finest traditions of the military service.
