On Feb. 15, 1951, Army Pvt. Bruno R. Orig was returning from a mission when he found his fellow soldiers under attack in what's now known as the Battle of Chipyong-ni. The infantryman provided first aid to his comrades wounded in the Korean War attack and began helping move those men to safety. He then took over a machine gun post and allowed a friendly platoon to pull back without a casualty. When the ground was recaptured later that day, Orig was found dead beside the machine gun, surrounded by enemy combatants he had killed. Orig was among the Medal of Honor recipients recognized Friday by President Joe Biden in one of his last opportunities to officially acknowledge acts of selflessness and personal bravery in times of war. Biden bestowed the medal posthumously to six men and one living recipient at a White House ceremony. “These are heroes of different ranks, different positions and even different generations," Biden said at the Medal of Honor ceremony, Friday evening, “they are heroes who all went above and beyond the call of duty.” Acknowledging his last days as president, Biden said “Today, is the final time as commander in chief, and I'm deeply privileged to honor seven American, seven American heroes."
