I was the Artillery Forward Observer in the firefight where that Chaplain received the MOH. He saved 22 men, sometimes crawling on his back with a wounded soldier on top of him to pull him out of the line of fire. 7 Dec 1967

Chaplain Chuck Litke, RC. He later left the priesthood, an became an anti-war activist. When I switched from artillery (after 19 years) to the chaplaincy I told people that I was taking his place.
