Gets Bronze Star Medal
With the 9th Infantry Division in
Germany, Private First Class
Harold F. Schatz, Jr, radio oper-
ator in A Company, 47th Infantry,
Regiment, of Mt. Joy, Pa. has re-
cently been awarded the Bronze
Star Medal for heroic achievement
in action against the enemy on Dec.
12, 1944, in the vicinity of Luchem,
Germany.
During an assault against strong-
ly defended enemy positions, Pfc.
Schatz’s Company was subjected to
a fierce enemy counter - attack.
Of Pfc. Schatz’s actions the official
Bronze Star Citation reads, in part;
“Although the enemy force ap-
proached to within range of
his unit’s emplacements, Pfc. Schatz
kept the enemy pinned down with a
heavy velume of accurate carbine
fire. When his own ammunition
was expended, he secured and ef-
fectively used the rifle and ammun-
ition of a wounded soldier. His
deadly ‘fire halted the assaulting
enemy troops and enabled the aid
men to evacuate all casualties from
the forward combat area, insuring
the wounded of prompt medical
treatment.”
Pfc. Schatz joined the 9th Div.
July 24, 1944, when the division was
in the vicinity of St. Lo, France.
He entered the service Dec. 10, 1943,
and trained at Camp Blanding, Fla.
