The soldier was at the head of a five-vehicle convoy when it came under attack in the town of al-Amarah on 1 May 2004.
He guided the column through a mile of enemy ground to drop off wounded comrades at great risk to his own safety, his citation said.
Weeks later, his vehicle was hit by an rocket-propelled grenade round. Despite a head wound, he managed to reverse his Warrior to safety.
No politics, just sheer bravery.
