Herbert H. Burr

Herbert H. Burr (September 13, 1920 – February 8, 1990) 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==
Burr joined the Army from Kansas City, Missouri, and by March 19, 1945 was serving as a Staff Sergeant in Company C, 41st Tank Battalion, 11th Armored Division. On that day, near the town of Dörrmoschel, Germany, he was a gunner in a tank when the vehicle was hit by enemy fire, forcing all crew members except himself to bail out. Burr then took over the driver's seat and completed the assigned mission of reconnoitering a road in the town. Upon encountering a German artillery gun, he drove directly towards it and ran it over, destroying the gun and scattering its crew. After returning to friendly lines and dismounting from the tank, he braved hostile fire to bring medical aid to a wounded comrade. For these actions, he was awarded the Medal of Honor five months later, on August 30, 1945.
Burr left the Army while still a staff sergeant. He died at age 69 and was buried in Mount Washington Cemetery, Independence, Missouri.
