Laverne Parrish (July 16, 1918 – January 24, 1945) 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== Parrish joined the Army from Ronan, Montana in March 1941,〔(WWII Army Enlistment Records )〕 and by January 18, 1945 was serving as a technician fourth grade in the Medical Detachment of the 161st Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division. On that day, at Binalonan on the island of Luzon in the Philippines, he exposed himself to enemy fire in order to aid two wounded soldiers. Six days later, on January 24, near San Manuel, he again braved hostile fire to tend to the wounded, carrying five men to safety and treating dozens more before being mortally wounded himself. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor six months later, on July 13, 1945. Parrish, aged 26 at his death, was buried in Mountain View Cemetery, Ronan, Montana.
