When I was at Fort Lewis with the 9th ID, there was a soldier in my unit C 2/47 Inf who came back into the Army after being out 4 years He was a PFC guess he lost rank since he was out so long. He was awarded the MOH when he was with the 1st CAV. I forget his name. He was good man to know. It was something else to see him get saluted by officers and other soldiers higher in rank to him. I recommened he be made an acitng Sgt and get promoted to E-4. In a one year he was a SGT E-5, I left for Korea, and that was the last I saw of him.
