Medal of Honor winner Tech. Sgt. Yeiki Kobashigawa is one of the most decorated combat awarded Soldiers in the history of the 34th In-fantry Division. Kobashigawa’s awards include the Bronze Star Medal, three Purple Hearts and the Combat Infantryman Badge.

Technical Sergeant Yeiki Kobashigawa distin-guished himself by extraordinary heroism in ac-tion on 2 June 1944, in the vicinity of Lanuvio, Italy. During an attack, Kobashigawa’s platoon encountered strong enemy resistance from a se-ries of machine guns providing supporting fire.

Observing a machine gun nest 50 yards from his position, Kobashigawa crawled forward with one of his men, threw a grenade and then charged the enemy with his submachine gun while a fellow soldier provided covering fire. He killed one en-emy soldier and captured two prisoners. Meanwhile, Kobashigawa and his comrade were fired upon by another machine gun 50 yards ahead. Directing a squad to advance to his first position, Kobashigawa again moved forward with a fellow soldier to subdue the second machine gun nest. After throwing gre-nades into the position, he provided close support-ing fire while a fellow soldier charged, captur-ing four prisoners. On the alert for other machine gun nests, Kobashigawa discovered four more, and skillfully led a squad in neutralizing two of them. Kobashigawa’s extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit on him, his unit, and the United States Army.

Do you want the Army to cover medical conditions developed during your deployment?

yes no

DEMOB Checklist

By Col. Michael B. Rath, 1/34 BCT Brigade Surgeon

Should I tell the doc my ankle still hurts from when I rolled it playing basketball? Or that my back still aches after not wearing my body armor for two weeks? What about those headaches I get from working in the motor pool? Or the sleepless nights I’ve been having since my vehicle was hit with a roadside bomb?

These thoughts, and many others, may be going through many Soldiers’ heads during their demobilization. When you are completing the medical portion, the simple answer to this is: “Yes.”

Your completion of the online portion of the Post Deployment Health Assessment is the first chance you’ll have to document these issues. When you get to the demobilization center, you’ll see a doctor or physician’s assistant who will talk with you about your answers. Be honest with them.

Let the medical providers do their job and work to take care of you, the returning Soldier. You may already have a line-of-duty accident report completed, or you may not. Regardless, it’s important you let the doctor know. This is one of the first steps in getting the medical care you need, both in the short term or to qualify for it in the future.

This is the time to make sure it is documented that you have something wrong with you, both physically and mentally. Trying to get the documentation done later on, after demobilization, is much more difficult, frustrating and time-consuming.

So remember: It is better to play it safe and tell the doc what’s going on. Taking care of yourself starts with you.

Once Soldiers are released from active duty, they will receive TriCare Standard medical insurance for 180 days from the day following the release date on their DD form 214. There is no cost for this coverage for the Soldier or the family. This insurance will provide an 80/20 split in medical costs.

During demobilization, Soldiers will com-plete paperwork asking if they want to enroll in TriCare Reserve Select for paid coverage after the first 180 days..

Soldiers are encouraged to answer “yes” to retain immediate eligibility for the coverage. If Soldiers answer “yes” and later choose not to take advantage of it, they simply do not enroll for the coverage. If the Soldier selects “no”, they lose their immediate eligibility until TriCare open application season begins in autumn. Soldiers enroll on-line at the same web address above. The application should be completed at least 60 days prior to the end of the 180 day coverage period.

After the 180 day period has ended they must either enroll in TriCare Reserve Select or revert to their a previous insurance pro-vider. TriCare is a fee based program much like Blue Cross and Blue Shield. You can find the cost for TRS at http://www.tricare.mil/re-serve/reserveselect/index.cfm

Do you want to continue Tricare insurance for ongoing medical coverage after your deployment?

yes no

This is the view from tower two of the forward combat outpost Flanders attacked by insur-gents hiding in and behind two dump trucks when they attacked last August.

Truck driver’s hunch instrumental in saving lives

CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq – Being a truck driver back in Minnesota as-sisted a Minnesota Guardsman in saving the lives of his fellow Soldiers and a forward Combat Out Post south of Camp Fallujah of being overrun by insurgents.

It was the early evening of Aug. 12. Two dump trucks pulled up on the only road in or out of the outpost named Flanders. But when one of the trucks suddenly accelerated, Spc. Billy Feragen, manning an M-2 .50 caliber machine gun in one of the outpost’s towers, knew something was amiss, and he was right.

An insurgent jumped up from the truck and started firing his AK-47 machine gun at Feragen. Seconds later, insurgents in both of the sandbag reinforced trucks attacked the outpost. In addition to small arms fire, the insurgents threw an estimated 40 grenades over the barriers.

“Feragen immediately engaged the individuals and trucks, slowing them down,” said Staff Sgt. David Hammac, the outpost’s noncommissioned of-ficer in charge. “Putting bullet holes left and right in that thing.”

By the time the battle was over an hour later, 20 insurgents were killed, a Marine and a Guardsman were injured, and Hammac and seven members of his squad had earned Bronze Star Medals with V device for Valor, the nation’s fourth highest award for bravery. The other recipients were Sgt. David Olson and Spcs. Feragen, Domingo Augilar, Jasen Klimek, Charles Knetter, Matthew Generux and John Olson.

“It was pretty intense,” said Hammac, who served with the 1st Infantry Division during Operation Iraqi Freedom II. “My adrenaline was pumping!”

The actions of these Soldiers will go down in 1/34 BCT history. They defended an outpost that provides water to Camp Fallujah from an estimated 30 insurgents.

During the attack, Feragen said he had to duck incoming fire but still fired his machine gun until it ran out of ammunition. He then left his tower, falling back to another fighting position. There, he grabbed his M-16 rifle and suc-cessfully engaged an insurgent standing up in one of the trucks.

Spc. Joseph Melhorn was in a tower manning the radio. He witnessed Fera-gen “unleash hell” in a battle that often had enemy fire coming from the east and west.

Hammac’s actions were impressive and a testament to his dedication to his soldiers and the mission. He maneuvered outside the perimeter walls twice to engage the enemy while under wither-ing small arms fire. He checked on his Soldiers in every tower and engaged the enemy from two of the outpost’s towers with a variety of weapons. At the height of the battle, he called in a mortar strike that broke the enemy’s attack. And, after defeating the enemy, he coordinated an evacuation mission to transport the wounded, carrying one of them to the ambulance.

Klimek’s bravery was demonstrated at tower one by throwing grenades and firing his .50-caliber machine gun and M-16 rifle. Once the attack started, he immediately ran towards tower one to gain a better firing position. Maneuver-ing past grenades, he climbed the ladder while under fire. Once on top, Klimek leaned his weapon over the sand bags, in direct sight of the enemy, to destroy an

exposed enemy position. When he was firing the .50-caliber, he was protected only by a sheet of bulletproof glass.

John Olson, an elementary education ma-jor, and Knetter performed admirably in the early minutes of the attack. When the firing began, Olson had no sooner opened the door of his sleeping quarters when an injured Spc. Jared Moe was being assisted by Knetter into the room as it was being peppered by enemy fire. Olson immediately applied a field dress-ing to the shrapnel wounds on Moe’s legs and side.

As Olson was treating Moe, Knetter laid down covering fire to allow Spcs. Justin Dunn and Domingo Augilar to “join the fight.”

As Olson finished attending to Moe, the squad’s medic, Spc. Matthew Generux, opened the room’s door to repel the attack. He, Knetter, and Feragen immediately caught a wounded Marine about to fall into the room. Once the Marine was moved to safety and receiving first aid for a gunshot wound to his side, they rejoined the fight.

Olson wasn’t done with his heroics. He delivered ammunition while under fire to tower one where he also accurately engaged the enemy with his M203 grenade launcher. Olson then ran to tower three where, while

climbing its ladder, he was again engaged by the enemy. From his tower, he suppressed the enemy using his M203 and a .50-caliber machine gun.

“Both times running out to the towers, you could hear rounds pinging off,” he said. “You had to defend what you were out there to defend.”

Besides assisting with the wounded, Knetter also grabbed a M249 Squad Automatic Weapon and charged to tower two. Just as he was about to reach the tower, he was engaged by enemy fire from two different loca-tions. He made it up the ladder in time to lay down overwhelming fire on the enemy in the gravel trucks in front of his tower.

David Olson’s heroics included providing ammunition to towers one and two. Upon learning that the Soldiers in tower two needed ammunition, he ran back to the ammunition room. While he was there, he was told to take cover because of imminent mortar fire that was going to be within 50 meters of their outpost. Ignoring the warning, Olson delivered the am-munition to tower two and informed the Soldiers there and in two other towers of the possible incoming mortars.

“It was really scary at first because as I was running down there, there were rounds ricocheting off the walls next to me,” he said. “My biggest concern was my guy’s conditions.”

The Soldiers also were concerned with the possible incoming mortars. The rounds were to be fired by their fellow mortarmen stationed nearby at Camp Fallujah.

“Soon as I knew we needed mortars, we were pretty rattled,” said Mel-horn. Everybody was nervous because our Forward Observers told us they weren’t zeroed in very well.”

“As soon I heard those mortars pop out from the south gate, I was like ‘Here they come everybody!’” said Melhorn, “everyone got down imme-diately.”

He said once the rounds hit, he felt dirt hitting the towers “all over the place.”

The mortars did their job and broke the attack, though. “They had them on like you wouldn’t believe,” Melhorn said. These brave Soldiers defeated the enemy thanks to a truck driver’s

hunch.

CAMP ANACONDA, Iraq – “Watch any war mov-ie,” says Spc. James Black, “and you always see some crazy and brave guy with a red cross on his arm doing the impossible to save his brothers – that is what people come to expect from combat medics.”

Black, a 23-year-old student from Weatherford, Okla., didn’t have a red cross on his arm Sept. 4, 2006, nor does he consider what he did that day to be crazy or brave. It was just his job.

The mission was to escort supply trucks to an Army base in northern Iraq. Black, then attached to the Lincoln, Neb.-based 1st Squadron, 167th Cavalry Regiment, was the medic for the convoy, driving in the middle Humvee as the group headed back to Balad.

They were on the road for less than 30 minutes when Black saw a flash followed by a large fireball and a loud boom, he said. An improvised explosive device con-cealed in the median of the highway had detonated as the scout vehicle, several yards ahead of the rest of the convoy, drove by it. The vehicle spun several times and immediately burst into flames, according to a written report.

When Black’s vehicle reached the site of the explo-sion he saw the gunner, Pfc. Luis Estrada, lying on his back in front of the wreckage.

“I moved to [Estrada’s] position and tried to wake him,” said Black via an e-mail interview. “When I couldn’t keep him conscious, I pulled him to the side of my vehicle away from the burning truck.”

After bandaging Estrada’s bleeding, shrapnel-dam-aged hips and moving him to a safe area, Black treated two of the other passengers for smoke inhalation. He then went back to the burning truck to aid in the ex-traction of the driver Sgt. Germaine Debro, who was still trapped inside. It proved difficult at first because the driver-side door had been caved in and wedged in position by the IED detonation. Also, heat from the fire caused ammunition and fragmentary grenades inside the cab to instantly begin “cooking off.” The door was finally ripped away and Debro was taken out.

“We called for a medical evacuation and I began to treat Debro for all the injuries I could in a hasty man-ner,” said Black.

This was not Black’s first enemy encounter in a war zone. He had been attached to the Pennsylvania-based 28th Infantry Division (Mechanized) when it was de-ployed to Ramadi in 2005. His Humvee sustained minor damage from an IED attack while he was on a mission two weeks after being in country. His first chance to perform duties as a medic also happened in Ramadi; a

supply truck had been hit in its fuel tank while he was part of another convoy. It too was set on fire, but both occupants man-aged to escape. Black helped carry one of the injured men and load him into his vehicle before both passengers were airlifted to a nearby hospital.

Black, a five-year Army veteran, drew upon both of those experiences as he and another medic continued to treat Debro for 45 minutes. The two were struggling to keep the injured Soldier’s vital signs positive, alternating as they breathed and pumped air into Debro’s chest until the evacuation helicopter arrived.

Even though Black seemed outwardly calm and collected while he was treating Debro, “that was a complete mask,” he said. He had to work as fast as possible just to keep his hands from shaking.

“One of the first things I learned in school was to not show how bad things are to anyone,” said Black. “If everyone thinks you have the situation under control, then it helps others to stay calm – especially the wounded.”

Despite Black’s quick, instinctive rescue actions and deci-sive medical treatment, Debro’s injuries were too severe and he later died – the event still gives Black nightmares.

“I think the burden of the medic is to live not only with the successes of saving a life, but also the horrors of seeing your friends die,” said Black. “[As a medic], there is no greater failure than having someone pass away in your arms. You have to learn to accept the fact that you can’t save them all, but the first time someone dies that you treated directly, it scars you.”

Black has been home since November after fulfilling his 12-month deployment obligation as a member of the Inactive Ready Reserve. Immediately after the attack, he was nominat-ed for a Bronze Star Medal with V device for Valor for his ac-tions but is unsure of whether or not it has been approved yet. He maintains the stance that he was simply doing what he was trained to do – “to treat the wounded, regardless of the risk.”

“My title is ‘Doc,’ and I refuse to be called a hero,” said Black. “To me, the term ‘hero’ is usually applied to people who don’t have to do the incredible things they do for oth-ers. The ordinary Joes who run into a burning building to save another but have had no training in firefighting, those are heroes.”

Spc. James Black, a Task Force SABER medic, prepares for a convoy mission.

AL ASAD AIR-BASE, Iraq – In two National Guard Soldiers’ written accounts of an August 2006 attack on their convoy, they used the same words to describe the back of a Humvee that was struck by a 155 mm artillery shell: “completely disintegrated.”

That day, members of the Mankato, Minn.-based 2nd Bat-talion, 135th Infantry Regiment’s combat logistics team were on a patrol heading from Camp Korean Village near Ar Rutbah back to their home base in northwest Iraq. The Soldiers of Charlie Company were split into two elements, “Forward Sweep Team” and “Lunch Bunch,” with the latter trailing about one kilometer behind the former.

Suddenly, a loud explosion rocked the convoy and a Hum-vee carrying Spc. John Dundee and Sgts. Shane O’Neill and Sean Rohret was completely incapacitated. The blast came from a pressure-plate improvised explosive device hidden in the road that left the entire rear half of the vehicle a charred, mangled mess. One of the first to respond to the scene was Sgt. Christopher “Doc” Logan, 47, a line medic with the 2-135th who was the acting truck commander of his Humvee.

“My vehicle was close to the explosion, by about an eighth of a mile,” said Logan, a native of Fergus Falls, Minn. “I told the driver to speed up and get to the site, and I asked my gun-ner for my aid bag. He asked me if I thought I would need it. I said, ‘Definitely.’”

Logan’s intuition was correct; shrapnel from the explosion had entered the crew compartment of the damaged vehicle, injuring all three occupants. O’Neill, who was in the front pas-senger seat, said the entire cab immediately filled with smoke and powder, possibly from a destroyed fire extinguisher.

“I began yelling to see if the others were alright, as I felt myself to check for bleeding,” O’Neill wrote in a statement detailing the event. “I heard Dundee respond and say that he didn’t get a response from Rohret. As the smoke cleared we could start to see Rohret and he didn’t look conscious, but he started coughing and finally responded to our yelling.”

Dundee and O’Neill were able to exit the vehicle them-selves, but Rohret was still stuck in the driver’s seat, unable to move. Logan ran up and approached the driver’s side of the

vehicle, getting within 10 feet of a second explosive device later discovered next to where the first explosion

occurred.“Oh, crap was the first thing I was thinking and, Oh,

God, I hope I can help these guys, and hopefully they are not mortally wounded,” said Logan. “The second thought after I saw the entire rear of their vehicle blown away was, I know someone is still in there, and I have to get him out and help him.”

Logan attempted to open Rohret’s door, but it was jammed. He then moved to the rear of the vehicle and was finally able to extract Rohret from the vehicle through the rear right door with the help of another Soldier. Logan determined Rohret’s injuries were severe enough that he could not be moved from the area until he was stabilized.

Rohret said he was having difficulty breathing as well as pain in his lower back and chest, which are symptoms of pneumothorax, a potential medical emergency caused by the accumulation of air or gas in the pleural cavity sur-rounding the lungs.

“We assessed the injured driver, and found that he had internal bleeding and a compromised lung and had to be stuck, getting a chest needle decompression,” said Logan.

Meanwhile, Dundee and O’Neill were clear of the vehicle but still has serious shrapnel wounds that had to be treated. Spc. Freddie Hignite, truck commander of the lead vehicle in the Lunch Bunch element, was approximately 150 meters behind the Humvee when it struck the IED. Hignite, a native of Science Hill, Ky., directed his driver to immediately speed up and reach the site of the explo-sion. He dismounted and took his first aid bag with him as he ran toward the injured Soldiers. Dundee had shrapnel stuck in his left leg and buttocks and was also disoriented from the explosion. Hignite stabilized Dundee’s injuries, then moved him further away from the secondary IED and continued treating his wounds under the cover of another vehicle, a report said.

After determining both Rohret and Dundee were stable, they were moved to an evacuation zone where they were flown via helicopter to Al Asad Airbase Hospital, treated for their injuries and later released.

Capt. Darrin J. Janisch, 2-135th company commander, was part of the convoy and took charge of establishing an outer security perimeter, clearing a landing zone for the in-coming medical evacuation team, and calling an explosive ordnance disposal team to safely detonate the second 155 mm round. He described the other Soldiers’ actions imme-diately after the explosion as “exemplary.”

“They reacted as they had been trained by their leaders, and immediately went right to work executing what needed to be done,” said Janisch, a 37-year-old native of Mankato and father of two. “There was a quiet, calm, methodical focus to their actions that day and things happened as a result.”
