From an AP story by Rebecca Santana and Kevin Wolf headlined “A Black medic wounded on D-Day honored for treating dozens of troops under enemy fire”:

An African American combat medic who was wounded while landing on Omaha Beach during the D-Day invasion in northern France but went on to tend to dozens of troops was posthumously honored Wednesday in a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. His family and supporters continue to push for an even higher recognition they believe his heroism is owed.
