The SILVER STAR is awarded to CORPORAL ANTON W GROSS, RA19315216, Infantry, United States Army, a member of Company M, 23d Infantry Regiment, 2d Infantry Division, who displayed gallantry in action against an armed enemy on 15 September 1950 in the vicinity of Yongsan, Korea. On that date Corporal Gross was the gunner of an 81mm mortar section with the mission of supporting a rifle company. In spite of heavy enemy mortar and artillery fire, he remained at his weapon and fired on the enemy with great effect. An enemy sniper infiltrated into position, firing at each muzzle blast, and seriously wounded Corporal Gross. He made several attempts to return to his mortar but was prevented from doing so by members of his squad. His disregard for his personal safety and his determination to continue firing was a great source of inspiration to his comrades. The gallantry and inspiring conduct displayed by Corporal Gross on this occasion reflect great credit upon himself and are in keeping with the high traditions of the military service. GO 23, 28 Jan 1951.
