U.S. Army Cpl. Ronald Rosser was awarded the
Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions in Ponggilli, Korea in January
of 1952.
Driven by the loss of his younger brother to the enemy in Korea Ron
Rosser made it his personal mission to get to the front lines and avenge his
brother's death. It didn't take long to get his wish.
As
Rosser's company assaulted a mountain he suddenly found
himself alone against countless Chinese soldiers and close enough to reach
out and touch them. Three times Rosser single-handedly assaulted trenches
and bunkers killing dozens. His actions orchestrated the rescue of fallen
American soldiers; and, in a most unexpected way, relieved him of the
bitterness that plagued him for so long.
