One former student, Bill DeVoe from the class of 1968 had a heroic tour of duty in country back in 1970. Within several months, DeVoe was awarded two medals for valor, the Silver Star and the Bronze Star. His story follows...

                           Vietnam -   "Hostile Landing Zone"

Sergeant Devoe distinguished himself by gallantry in action while engaged in military operations involving conflict with armed hostile forces in the Republic of Vietnam on 22 March 1970 while serving as a squad leader with Company C, 4^th Battalion, 12^th Infantry, 199^th Infantry Brigade

On this date, Sergeant Devoe and his squad had just been inserted into a hostile landing zone when the helicopter was destroyed by a rocket-propelled grenade. Sergeant Devoe and his squad then came under intense enemy fire. Immediately, Sergeant Devoe maneuvered through intense hostile fire to direct the fire of his men. Sergeant Devoe moved over the rocks that separated his squad from the remainder of the Second Platoon to retrieve a radio. Finding that the radio was still in the helicopter, he ignored the hostile fire and returned to the burning helicopter to retrieve the radio.

He then returned to his squad and initiated radio contact with the rest of the platoon. As another flight of helicopters approached the landing zone, his machine gunner was wounded. Sergeant Devoe took the machine gun, collected fragmentation grenades from his men, climbed to a strategic position and engaged the enemy.

His suppressive fire forced the enemy to seek cover and permitted the men on the incoming flights to move to covered positions.

Sergeant Devoe's actions were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit and the United States Army.
