I am sharing another Medal of Honor recipient today. I will be sharing one in each post:

Matthew O. Williams Born October 3, 1981, Casper Wyoming Service Branch: U.S. Army.

Citation

After the lead assault element was ambushed, Sgt. Williams braved heavy fire and led a counter attack with icy boulders. and a fast moving river. He provided medical aid to a wounded team sergeant, then continued to fight up a mountainside, directing suppressive fire. After hours of fighting, he exposed himself again to load and evacuate wounded and dead soldiers, ensuring the survival of four.
