Thomas J. Kelly (Medal of Honor)
Thomas Joseph Kelly 〔(Hall of Valor )〕 (September 9, 1923 – October 2, 1988) 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==
Kelly joined the Army from his birthplace of Brooklyn, New York, and by April 5, 1945 was serving as a Corporal in the Medical Detachment of the 48th Armored Infantry Battalion, 7th Armored Division. On that day, in Alemert, Germany, he repeatedly exposed himself to hostile fire in order to drag wounded men to safety. For these actions, he was awarded the Medal of Honor seven months later, on November 1, 1945.
Kelly reached the rank of Sergeant before leaving the Army. Kelly was a graduate of the Fordham Law School and served as president of the Congressional Medal of Honor Society. He died at age 65 and was buried in Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington County, Virginia.
