Patrick L. Kessler (March 17, 1922 – May 25, 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== Kessler joined the Army from his birthplace of Middletown, Ohio in September 1942,〔(WWII Army Enlistment Records )〕 and by May 23, 1944 was serving as a private first class in Company K, 30th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division. On that day, near Ponte Rotto, Italy, he single-handedly charged two German positions, a machine gun nest and a strongpoint, and captured sixteen German soldiers, including two snipers. Kessler was killed in action two days later and, on January 4, 1945, posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions near Ponte Rotto. Kessler, aged 22 at his death, was buried at Woodside Cemetery in his hometown of Middletown, Ohio.
