4th Combat Engineer Battalion The battalion's main focus for 1997 was preparing to function as the command element for the MAGTF during the AOT at NAB Coronado. This was the first time the battalion had functioned as a command element. That same year the battalion sent a detachment to Aruba for training with Royal Dutch Marines. During 1997 the 4th CEB continued to be instrumental in implementing the Division's policy on community outreach. Of particular note were Charlie Company's assistance with several Habitat for Humanity projects, Toys for Tots campaigns and Delta Company's work in honoring WWII hero Lieutenant "Sandy Bonnyman. The battalion again provided support for AOT in 1998. In 1998, a detachment from Engineer Support assisted a local community with the demolition of a former reserve center that was no longer in use. The battalion constructed a road and ball field for the community of Cannelton, West Virginia. Charlie Company conducted its third annual Mud Run and raised $10,000 for Toys for Tots and Camp Roanoke. In 1999, Major General Punaro recognized local community leaders for their support of the Marine Corps and the Marine Corps Reserve. The battalion participated in a Base Improvement Project at MCB Quantico, a Boy Scouts of America Construction Project, Exercises Urban Warrior and Agile Thrust and conducted unit training at MCB Quantico. In 1999, Charlie Company again sponsored its annual Mud Run incorporating that event with a family/Marine day. That year the unit raised $14,000 for Camp Roanoke and Toys for Tots.
Headquarters Battalion MP Company was awarded the 1997 Cates Award as the best company of the MFR. The outstanding performance of the company during a major flood in North Dakota and Minnesota during the spring of 1996, was the basis for the award. As a result of this emergency disaster relief effort, all hands serving with MP Company during this difficult period received the Humanitarian Service Award. The Headquarters staff augmented the First Marine Division Staff during Exercises Desert Scimitar and Steel Knight. Communications Company supported and augmented the First and Second Marine Divisions throughout the year. MP Company and Truck Company participated in CAX 7 and 8.
In 1998, the headquarters battle staff was fully integrated into the 4th Division active duty staff to create a fully integrated general staff. MP Company and Truck Company continued to support CAX 7 and 8. Truck Company provided support to amphibious orientation training at Coronado, CA. Communications Company supported and augmented the 1 St and 2nd Marine Divisions throughout the year. Reserve affiliation detachments were created at the First and Second Marine Divisions. The mission of these detachments is to facilitate interoperability between divisions and recruit Marines leaving active service to the SMCR. In 1999, Headquarters Battalion experienced dramatic increases in key unit readiness indicators. Both personnel and unit training readiness increased by a significant 20 percent. MP Company and Truck Company continued to support CAX 7 and 8. Truck Company additionally provided support to amphibious orientation training at Coronado, CA. Communications Company supported CAX 7 and 8 and Exercise Battle Griffin. An additional affiliation detachment was created to augment the "War Room" Staff at HQMC. This detachment's mission is to assist the Commandant in assessing all Marine Corps issues being considered on a national level. In addition, the unit provides OpTempo relief to the Commandant's Strategic Initiative Group and the Office of Legislative Affairs. 139
4th Marine Division Staff The principal and overarching goal of the Division is to remain an integral and viable part of the Total Force combat power of the United States Marine Corps. In support of the Division's goals, the Division Staff has as its primary mission the support of all units in the Division. It has continued to maintain operational excellence throughout the Division by facilitating increased Combined Arms training at all levels, increasing Mobilization Readiness by planning and conducting Deployment Exercises, and focusing the Command Inspection Program on increasing the operational readiness of units. The Division Staff continuously evaluates and provides substantive solutions to the problems of retention and attrition in the Division's ranks and provides OPTEMPO relief of the Active Duty Component by Reserve Units, and Active Duty and Active Reserve support of the Division. The Staff has continued to take a proactive roll in improving the quality of life throughout the Division, and has taken the lead in addressing the myriad of initiatives to improve the Total Force. These initiatives include revising and improving the CAX program, artillery modernization and reorganization, addressing the reconnaissance problem, and the reserve unit affiliation initiative. The Staff oversees the Division's contributions to the local community through outreach programs that increase the community's awareness of the Marine Corps and enhance the Corps' visibility and image. To this end the Staff has assumed the point in the newest mission of the Marine Corps Reserve, that of Civil Support Operations. The Staff continues to explore all opportunities for the Marine Corps Reserve to augment, support and serve in the increasingly important civil support arena. Exercise Gunslinger 2000 tested and evaluated the Division's first effort in this new and important area of operations. From 1997 through 2000, the 4th Marine Division has continually addressed the concerns and issues which confronted the Marine Corps Reserve, from combat readiness across the entire spectrum of operations, to community outreach and support. The Staff has assisted in the Division's performance across the board.

Appendix E 4th Marine Division Medal of Honor Recipients The first formal system for rewarding acts of individual gallantry by the nations fighting men was established by General George Washington on August 7, 1782. Designed to recognize "any singularly meritorious action," the award consisted of a purple cloth heart, and was called the badge of military merit. Records show that only three persons received the award: Sergeant Elah Churchill, Sergeant William Brown, and Sergeant Daniel Bissel Jr. Although the Badge of Military Merit fell into disuse after the Revolutionary War, the idea of a decoration for individual gallantry remained through the early 1800s. In 184Z after the outbreak of the Mexican War a "certificate of merit" was established for any soldier who distinguished himself in action. No medal went with the honor. After the Mexican-American War, the award was discontinued, which meant that there was no military award with which to recognize the nationis fighting men. Early in the Civil War, a medalfor individual valor was proposed to General-in-Chief of the Army Winfield Scott. Scott, however, felt that medals smacked of European affectation and killed the idea. The medalfound support in the Navy, where it was felt that recognition of courage in strife was needed. President Abraham Lincoln signed Public Resolution 82, containing a pro vision for a Navy Medal of Valor, into law on December 21, 1861. The medal was to be bestowed upon such petty officers, seamen, landsmen, and marines as shall most distinguish themselves by their gallantry and other seamanlike qualities during the present war." Shortly after this, a resolution similar in wording was introduced on behalf of the Army. Signed into law on July 12, 1862, the measure pro vided for awarding a Medal of Honor "to such non-commissioned officers and privates as shall most distinguish themselves by their gallantry in action, and other soldierlike qualities, during the present insurrection."1 Pfc.

Private First aass Richard Beatty Anderson, USMC Unit:
Co E, 2d Battalion, 23d Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
26 June, 1921, Tacoma, Washington
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his ilfe above and beyond the call of duty while serving with the Fourth Marine Division during action against enemy Japanese forces on Roi Island, Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Is lands, 1 February 1944. Entering a shell crater occupied by three other Marines, Private First Class Anderson was preparing to throw a grenade at an enemy position, when it slipped from his hands and rolled toward the men at the bottom of the hole. With insufficient time to retrieve the armed weapon and throw it, Private First Class Anderson fearlessly chose to sacrifice himself and save his companions by hurling his body upon the grenade and taking the full impact of the explosion. His personal valor and exceptional spirit of loyalty, in the face of almost certain death, were in keeping with the highest traditions of the U. S. Naval Service. He gallantly gave his ilfe for his country.

Lieutenant Colonel Justice Marion Chambers, USMCR Unit:
CO. 3d Battalion, 25th Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
2 February 1908, Huntington, West Virginia
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his !fe above and beyond the call of duty as Commanding Officer of the Third Assault Battalion Landing Team, Twenty-Fifth Marines, Fourth Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces on Iwo Jima, Volcano Islands, from 19 to 22 February 1945. Under afurious barrage of enemy machine-gun and small-arms fire from the commanding cliffs on the right, Colonel Chambers, then Lieutenant Colonel, landed immediately after the initial assault waves of his Battalion on D-Day to find the momentum of the assault threatened by heavy casualties from withering Japanese artillery, mortar, rocket, machinegun and nfie fire. Exposed to relentless hostile fire, he coolly reorganized his battle-weary men, inspiring them to heroic efforts by his own valor and leading them in an attack on the critical, impregnable high ground from which the enemy was pouring an increasing volume offire directly onto troops ashore, as well as amphibious craft in succeeding waves. Constantly in the front line encouraging his men to push forward against the enemy's savage resistance, Colonel Chambers led the 8-hour battle to carry the flanking ridge top and reduce the enemy's fields of aimed fore, thus protecting the vitalfoot-hold gained. In constant defiance of hostile fire, while reconnoitering the entire Regimental Combat Team zone of action, he maintained contact with adjacent units and forwarded vital information to the Regimental Commander. His zealous fighting spirit undiminished, despite ternfic casualties and the loss of most of his key officers, he again reorganized his troops for renewed attack against the enemy's main line of resistance and was directing the fire of the rocket platoon, when he fell, critically wounded. Evacuated under heavy Japanese fire, Colonel Chambers, by forceful leadership, courage and fortitude in the face of staggering odds, was directly instrumental in insuring the success of subsequent operations of the Fifth Amphibious Corps on Iwo Jima, thereby sustaining and enhancing the finest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

Sergeant Darrell Samuel Cole, USMCR Unit:
Co B, 1st Battalion, 23d Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
20 July 1920, Flat River, Missouri
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while serving as leader of a Machinegun Section of Company B, First Battalion, Twenty-third Marines, Fourth Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces during the assault on Iwo Jima in the Volcano Islands, 19 February 1945. Assailed by a tremendous volume of smallarms, mortar and artillery fire as he advanced with one squad of his section in the initial assault wave, Sergeant Cole boldly led his men up the sloping beach toward Ailfield No. 1 despite the blanketing curtain offlying shrapnel and, personally destroying with hand grenades two hostile emplacements which menaced the progress of his unit, continued to move forward until a merciless barrage of fire emanating from three Japanese pillboxes halted the advance. Instantly placing his one remaining machine in action, he delivered a shattering fusillade and succeeded din silencing the nearest and most threatening emplacement before his weapon jammed and the enemy, reopening fire with knee mortars and grenades, pinned down his unit for the second time. Shrewdly gaging the tactical situation and evolving a daring plan of counter-attack, Sergeant Cole, armed solely with a pistol and one grenade, cooly advanced alone to the hostile pillboxes. Hurling his one grenade at the enemy in sudden, swift attack, he quickly withdrew, returned to his own lines for additional grenades and again advanced, attacked, and withdrew. With the enemy guns still active, he ran the gauntlet of slashing fire a third time to complete the total destruction of the Japanese strong point and the annihilation of the defending garrison in this final assault. Although instantly killed by an enemy grenade as he returned to his squad, Sergeant Cole had eliminated a formidable Japanese position, thereby enabling his company to storm the remaining fortifications, continue the advance, and seize the objective. By his dauntless initiative, unfaltering courage, and indomitable determination during a critical period of action, Sergeant Cole served as an inspiration to his comrades, and his stout-hearted leadership in the face of almost certain death sustained and enhanced the highest tradition of the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.

Lieutenant Colonel Aquilla James Dyess, USMCR Unit:
1st Battalion, 24th Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
11 January 1909, Augusta, Georgia
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his !fe above and beyond the call of duty as Commanding Officer of the First Battalion, Twenty-fourth Marines, Reinforced, Fourth Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces during the assault on Namur Island, Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, 1 and 2 February 1944. Undaunted by severefirefrom automatic Japanese weapons, Lieutenant Colonel Dyess launched a powerful final attack on the second day of the assault, unhesitatingly posting himself between the opposing lines to point out objectives and avenues of approach and personally leading the advancing troops. Alert and determined to quicken the pace of the offensive against enemy fire, he was constantly at the head of advance units, inspiring his men to push forward until the Japanese had been driven back to a small center of resistance and victory assured. While standing on the parapet of an anti-tank trench directing a group of infantry in a flanking attack against the last enemy position, Lieutenant Colonel Dyess was killed by a burst of enemy machinegun fire. His daring and forceful leadership and his valiant fighting spirit in the face of terrflc opposition were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.

Sergeant Ross Franklin Gray, USMCR Unit:
Co A, 1st Battalion, 25th Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
1 August 1920, Marvel Valley, Alabama
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of
duty as a Platoon Sergeant attached to Company A, First Battalion, Twenty-fifth Marines, Fourth Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces on Iwo Jima, Volcano Islands, 21 February 1945. Shrewdly gaging the tactical situation when his platoon was held up by a sudden barrage of hostile grenades while advancing toward the high ground northeast of Airfield No. 1, Sergeant Gray promptly organized the withdrawal of his men from enemy grenade range, quickly moved forward alone to reconnoiter and discovered a heavily minded area extending along the front of a strong network of emplacements joined by covered trenches. Although assailed by furious gunfire, he cleared a path leading through the minefield to one of the fort ifi cations, then returned to the platoon position and, informing his leader of the serious situation, volunteered to initiate an attack under cover of three fellow Marines. Alone and unarmed but carrying a huge satchel charge, he crept up on the Japanese emplacement, boldly hurled the short-fused explosive and sealed the entrance. Instantly taken under machinegunfirefrom a second entrance to the same position, he unhesitatingly braved the increasingly vicious fusillades to crawl back for another charge, returned to his objective and blasted the second opening, thereby demolishing the position. Repeatedly covering the ground between the savagely defended enemy fort flcations and his platoon area, he systematically approached, attacked and withdrew under blanketing fire to destroy a total of six Japanese positions, more than 25 troops and a quantity of vital ordnance gear and ammunition. Stouthearted and indomitable, Sergeant Gray had sin glehandedly overcome a strong enemy garrison and had completely disarmed a large minefield before finally rejoining his unit. By his great personal valor, daring tactics and tenacious perseverance in the face of extreme peril, he had contributed materially to the fulfillment of his company mission. His gallant conduct throughout enhanced and sustained the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

Private First Class Douglas Thomas Jacobson, USMCR Unit:
Co L, 3d Battalion, 23d Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
25 November 1925, Rochester, New York
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his l[e above and beyond the call of duty while serving with the 3d Battalion, 23d Marines, 4th Marine Division, in combat against enemy Japanese forces during the seizure of Iwo Jima in the Volcano Islands, 26 February 1945. Promptly destroying a stubborn 20mm antiaircraft gun and its crew after assuming the duties of a bazooka man who had been killed, Private First Oass Jacobson waged a relentless battle as his unit fought desperately toward the summit of Hill 382 in an effort to penetrate the heart of Japanese cross-island defense. Employing his weapon with ready accuracy when his platoon was halted by overwhelming enemy fire on 26 February, he first destroyed two hostile machinegun positions, then attacked a large blockhouse, completely neutralizing the fortflcation before dispatching the five-man crew of a second pillbox and exploding the installation with a terrific demolitions blast. Moving steadily forward, he wiped out an earth-covered nfie emplacement and, confronted by a cluster of similar emplacements which constituted the perimeter of enemy defenses in his assigned sector, fearlessly advanced, quickly reduced all 6 positions to a shambles, killed 10 of the enemy, and enabled our forces to occupy the strong point. Determined to widen the breach thus forced, he volunteered his services to an adjacent assault company, neutralized a pilibox holding up its advance, opened fire on a Japanese tank pouring a steady stream off bullets on one of our supporting tanks, and smashing the enemy tank's gun turret in a brief but furious action culminating in a singlehanded assault against still another blockhouse and the subsequent neutralization of its firepower. By his dauntless skill and valor, PFC Jacobson destroyed a total of 16 enemy positions and annihilated approximately 75 Japanese, thereby contributing essentially to the success of his division's operations against this fanatically defended outpost of the Japanese Empire. His gallant conduct in the face of tremendous odds enhanced and sustained the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.
175
Gunnery Sergeant Robert Howard McCard, USMC Unit:
Co A, 4th Tank Battalion, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
25 November 1918, Syracuse, New York
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while serving as Platoon Sergeant of Company A, Fourth Tank Battalion, Fourth Marine Division, during the battle for enemy Japanese-held Saipan, Marianas Islands, on 16 June 1944. Cut offfrom the other units of his platoon when his tank was put out of action by a battery of enemy 77mm, guns, Gunnery Sergeant McCard carried on resolutely, bringing all the tank's weapons to bear on the enemy, until the severity of hostile fire caused him to order his crew out of the escape hatch while he courageously exposed himself to enemy guns by hurling hand grenades, in order to cover the evacuation of his men. Seriously wounded during this action and with his supply of grenades exhausted, Gunnery Sergeant McCard then dismantled on of the tank's machine guns and faced the Japanese for the second time to deliver vigorous fire into their positions, destroying 16 of the enemy but sacrflcing himself to insure the safety of his crew. His valiant fighting spirit and supreme loyalty in the face of almost certain death reflect the highest credit upon Gunnery Sergeant McCard and the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.

Captain Joseph Jeremiah McCarthy, USMCR Unit:
Co, Co G, 2d Battalion, 24th Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
10 August 1911, Chicago, Illinois
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his Ife above and beyond the call of duty as commanding officer of a rifle company attached to the 2d Battalion, 24th Marines, 4th Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces during the seizure of Iwo Jima, Volcano Islands, on 21 February 1945. Determined to break through the enemy's cross-island defenses, Captain McCarthy acted on his own initiative when his company advance was held up by uninterrupted Japanese nfie, machinegun, and high-velocity 4 7mm. Fire during the approach to Motoyama Airfield No.2. Quickly organizing a demolitions and flamethrower team to accompany his picked nfie squad, he fearlessly led the way across 75 yards offire-swept ground, charged a heavily fortfled pillbox on the ridge of the front and, personally hurling hand grenades into the emplacement as he directed the combined operations of his small assault group, completely destroyed the hostile installation. Spotting two Japanese soldiers attempting an escape from a shattered pilibox, he boldly stood upright in full view of the enemy and dispatched both troops before advancing to a second emplacement under greatly intensfled fire and then blasted the strong fortflcations with a well-planned demolition attack. Subsequently entering the ruins, he found a Japanese taking aim at one of our men and, with alert presence of mind, jumped the enemy, disarmed and shot him with his own weapon. Then, intent on smashing through the narrow breach, he rallied the remainder of his company and pressed aful! attack with furious aggressiveness until he had neutralized all resistance and captured the ridge. An inspiring leader and indomitable fighter. Captain McCarthy consistently disregarded all personal danger during the fierce conflict and, by his brilliant professional skill, daring tactics, and tenacious perseverance in the face of overwhelming odds, contributed materially to the success of his division's operations against this savagely defended outpost of the Japanese Empire. His cool decision and outstanding valor reflect the highest credit upon Captain McCarthy and enhance the finest traditions of the United States Naval Service.
177
Private Joseph William Ozbourn, USMCR Unit:
Co B, 1st Battalion, 23d Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
24 October 1919, Herrin, Illinois
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty as a Browning Automatic Rifleman serving with the First Battalion, Twenty-third Marines, Fourth Marine Division, during the battle for enemy Japanese-held Tinian Island, Marianas Islands, 30 July 1944. As a member of a platoon assigned the mission of clearing the remaining Japanese troops from dugouts and pillboxes along a tree line, Private Ozbourn, flanked by two men on either side, was moving forward to throw an armed hand grenade into a dugout when a ternfic blasts from the entrance severely wounded the four men and himself Unable to throw the grenade into the dugout and with no place to hurl it without endangering the other men, Private Ozbourn unhesitatingly grasped it close too his body and fell upon it, sacrflcing his own life to absorb the full impact of the explosion, but saving his comrades. His great personal valor and unwavering loyalty reflect the highest credit upon Private Ozbourn and the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.

Pharmacist's Mate First aass Francis Junior Pierce, U S. Navy Unit:
Serving with 2d Battalion, 24th Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
7 December 1924, Earlyule, Iowa
Citation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his ilfe, above and beyond the call of duty, while attached to the 2d Battalion, 24th Marines, 4th Marine Division, during the Iwo Jima campaign, 15 and 16 March 1945. Almost continuously under fire while carrying out the most dangerous volunteer assignments, Pierce gained valuable knowledge of the terrain and disposition of troops. Caught in heavy enemy nfie and machinegun fire which wounded a corpsman and 2 of the 8 stretcher bearers who were carrying 2 wounded Marines to a forward aid station on 15 March, Pierce quickly took charge of the party, carried the newly wounded men to a sheltered position, and rendered first aid. After directing the evacuation of 3 of the casualties, he stood in the open to draw the enemy's fire, and with his weapon blasting, enabled the litter bearers to reach cover. Turning his attention to the other 2 casualties, he was attempting to stop the profuse bleeding of 1 man when a Japanese fired from a cave less than 20 yards away and wounded his patient again. Risking his own l[e to save his patient, Pierce deliberately exposed himself to draw the attacker from the cave and destroyed him with the last of his ammunition. Then, lifting the wounded man to his back, he advanced unarmed through deadly rt7e fire across 200 feet of open terrain. Despite exhaustion and in the face of warnings against such a suicidal mission, he again traversed the same fire swept path to rescue the remaining Marine. On the following morning, he led a combat patrol to the sniper nest and, while aiding a stricken Marine, was seriously wounded. Refusing aid for himself, he directed treatment for the casualty, at the same time maintaining protectivefirefor his comrades. Completely fearless, completely devoted to the care of his patients, Pierce inspired the entire battalion. His valor in the face of extreme peril sustains and enhances the finest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

First Lieutenant John Vincent Power, USMCR Unit:
Co K, 3d Battalion, 24th Marines, 4th Marine Division
Birth:
20 November 1918, Worcester, Massachusetts
Cit ation: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his ilfe above and beyond the call of duty as Platoon Leader, attached to the Fourth Marine Division, during the landing and battle of Namur Island, Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, 1 February 1944. Severely wounded in the stomach while setting a demolition charge on a Japanese pillbox, First Lieutenant Power was steadfast in his determination to remain in action. Protecting his would with his left hand and firing with his right, he courageously advanced as another hostile position was taken under attack, fiercely charging the opening made by the explosion and emptying his carbine into the pillbox. While attempting to reload and continue the attack, First Lieutenant Power was shot again in the stomach and head and collapsed in the doorway. His exceptional valor, fortitude and indomitable fighting spirit in the face of withering enemy fire were keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his ilfe for his country.

Putting up a brave defense against a particularly violent counterattack by the enemy during invasion operations, Private Sorenson and five other Marines occupying a shellhold were endangered by a Japanese grenade thrown into their midst. Unhesitatingly, and with complete disregard for his own safety, Private Sorenson hurled himself upon the deadly weapon, heroically taking the full impact of the explosion. As a result of his gallant action, he was severely wounded, but the lives of his comrades were saved. His great personal valor and exceptional spirit of self-sacnfice in the face of almost certain death were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.
