Amid a hailstorm of bullets and bombs raking the surf all around him, Waverly Woodson Jr. leaped out of a landing craft onto Normandy Beach on D-Day and pushed ahead – saving more than 200 Soldiers. Woodson, then a corporal, was cited for his bravery during the invasion, attending to Soldiers as well as saving wounded men from drowning – all after being wounded himself. These actions earned him the Bronze Star. However, Woodson was never formally presented it because he left Europe quickly to deploy for Japan. He also was approved for the Combat Medic Badge this past August. This week, Woodson’s Bronze Star and Combat Medic Badge were presented to his wife at @ArlingtonNatl. This is only part of Staff Sgt. Woodson’s amazing story of overcoming adversity and #MakingaDifference. Discover more of it at nps.gov/people/waverly-woods…
