Woodrow Wilson Keeble of Wahpeton, North Dakota, born in 1917 and died in 1982, served with Company G, 2nd Battalion, 19th Infantry Regiment, 24th Infantry Division, U.S. Army. On October 20, 1951, while leading a support platoon in the attack on Hill 765 near Sangsan-ni, Korea, he saw that attacking elements of his company had been pinned down by fire from three well-fortified enemy machine gun positions. Disregarding his own safety, he joined the pinned-down platoon and crawled forward alone to attack the enemy emplacements. He destroyed the first two machine gun positions with grenades, then advanced on the third despite concentrated enemy firepower and grenades directed against him. He neutralized the last machine gun position with accurate rifle fire and continued directing rifle fire against nearby enemy trenches, inflicting extremely heavy casualties. Inspired by his courage, Company G seized its objective, and his extraordinary courage and devotion to duty reflected great credit on himself, his unit, and the United States Army.
