Al Schmid
Al Schmid (20 October 1920 – 1 December 1982) was a United States Marine awarded the Navy Cross for his heroism at the Battle of the Tenaru (Ilu River) during the Guadalcanal campaign in World War II. Credited with killing over 200 Japanese attackers during a night-long assault, he was blinded in action by a grenade blast and endured multiple surgeries and extended rehabilitation upon his return to the U.S.. His life story appeared in the American news magazines of the time, the book ''Al Schmid, Marine'' by Roger Butterfield, and the 1945 film ''Pride of the Marines'', in which he was played by American actor John Garfield. ==Biography== Albert Andrew Schmid was born in Burholme, Pennsylvania, the second son and third child of Adolph and Marian Schmid who both came from Germany to Philadelphia in the early 1880s. His father worked as a truck driver and baker. His mother died around 1932 and after his father remarried in 1934, Albert (AL) moved out about 1938, eventually becoming an apprentice steel burner at the Dodge Steel Company in Philadelphia in 1940.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Albert Andrew Schmid, Sergeant, United States Marine Corps )〕
