James Allen Taylor (born December 31, 1937) is a retired United States Army officer and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in the Vietnam War. ==Biography== Taylor joined the Army from San Francisco, California in 1956 and was commissioned as an Army officer in 1965. By November 8, 1967, he was serving as a First Lieutenant in Troop B, 1st Squadron, 1st Cavalry Regiment, Americal Division. When his commander was wounded in action, Taylor was ordered into the combat zone to take command and prepare a search-and-destroy mission. During a battle the next day, west of Que Son in the Republic of Vietnam, Taylor repeatedly exposed himself to enemy fire to rescue crewmen from damaged assault vehicles and personnel carriers. He was subsequently promoted to Captain and awarded the Medal of Honor on November 19, 1968. Taylor reached the rank of Major before retiring from the Army in 1980. He holds a bachelor's degree in criminology from the University of Tampa.〔"Real Heroes are Among UT Alums," by Steve Otto, The Tampa Tribune, Metro Section, pp. 1, 4; April 15, 2013 〕
