@usarmy Capt. Gary M. Rose served as a Special Forces Combat Medic in the #VietnamWar. During a 4-day mission, Capt. Rose, braving the hail of bullets, administered first aid to half of the company. Using his own body to protect the casualties from further injury, he was wounded multiple times. For his gallantry and intrepidity, he earned the #MedalofHonor.
