I bow to your joint wisdom and knowledge. Soldier's Medal sounds great to me...

Per Army Regulation 600-8-22, para 3-13 “The performance must have involved personal hazard or danger and the voluntary risk of life under conditions not involving conflict with an armed enemy. Awards will not be made solely on the basis of having saved a life.”

I would say they went into a dangerous situation. No one knew if there were any other bombs in place. They took action on their own accord.

It would take me a couple days to put the correct verbage in place, but I am certain could get it written up and approved.
