Hines was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and the Distinguished Service Medal for his bravery and leadership in combat in World War I; he went on to become Army Chief of Staff. Audie L. Murphy received the Medal of Honor for saving the troops in his company and single-handedly breaking up a German attack toward the end of World War II. General Omar N.
