Henry F. Warner : ウィキペディア英語版 | Henry F. Warner
Henry F. Warner (August 23, 1923 – December 21, 1944) was a United States Army soldier and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in World War II. ==Biography== Warner joined the Army from his birth city in January 1943,〔(WWII Army Enlistment Records )〕 and by December 20, 1944 was serving as a Corporal in the Antitank Company of the 2nd Battalion, 26th Infantry Regiment, 1st Infantry Division. During a battle on that day, near Bütgenbach, Belgium, Warner continued to man his anti-tank gun through the night and into the next morning, despite intense fire from the approaching German tanks. He successfully disabled several enemy tanks before being killed in action. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor six months later, on June 23, 1945. The current Warner Barracks complex was appropriated in 1950 by U.S. forces and renamed in honor of Cpl. Henry F. Warner. Warner, aged 21 at his death, was buried at Southside Cemetery in his hometown of Troy, North Carolina.
