That's mighty impressive! Would you be at liberty to tell us the general area where he served?
Why would these actions be impressive?. Any vet who I have ever talked to (a considerable number) from WWII who was awarded medals of valor for battlefield actions would never consider their medals as "impressive". To the man, each of them would have said that their actions for which they received medals were either a matter of survival or performed with consideration for their comrades.
I had three great-uncles die in a two day period in 1944. One died on Omaha and one in Italy on 6JUN44, one on Utah on 7JUN44. My grandfather recieved a Navy Cross in the Pacific for actions he would never discuss. I recall as a youngster finding his NC in it's box, asking what it was, being told that it was a Navy Cross, saying "Cool!", and getting a response and look from my granddad which I will never forget; "No, it was not cool, death is not "cool" and don't ever forget it".

My father would be fine with me showing Mo1's father respect and admiration, and his opinion means one hell of a lot more to me than yours does - got it?
Lay off.
