Let's get your week off to the right start with a #MedalOfHonorMonday! On 8 Feb 1944, Cpl. Paul B. Huff's platoon was staked out on a beachhead when they came under enemy artillery fire. Huff volunteered to lead a six-man team to locate the enemy. Huff's team soon came under fire from three machine guns and a 20-mm weapon. Not wanting to endanger his men any further, Huff pressed on alone through a minefield while under constant fire. Huff made it to a machine gun nest, where he was able to kill the crew and destroy their weapon. His actions exposed him to the remaining gunners, who continued to fire on him. In doing so, he was able to determine the number and location of the remaining enemies. He then crawled back to his team and led them to safety. Armed with this information, an Allied patrol, including men led by Huff, defeated the 125-man enemy company.
