| Description |
English: "First Army Command Sgt. Maj. Chris Prosser, left, presents JoAnn Woodson, right, with the Bronze Star her husband, U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Waverly Woodson Jr., earned during his service in Section 69 of Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, Va., Oct. 11, 2023. This medal presentation was part of a ceremony, held near the gravesite of Woodson, to posthumously present JoAnn, Woodson’s wife, with the Bronze Star and the Combat Medic Badge he earned. Staff Sgt. Woodson was a First U.S. Army Soldier and on June 6, 1944, he was part of the first wave of Soldiers who stormed Omaha Beach at Normandy, France during D-Day. Staff Sgt. Woodson was cited for bravery during this event,attending to Soldiers as well as saving wounded men from drowning, all after being wounded himself. These actions earned Staff Sgt. Woodson the Bronze Star and the Combat Medic Badge. Staff Sgt. Woodson was never formally presented the Bronze Star because he left Europe quickly to deploy for Japan.He was just approved for the Combat Medic Badge this past August.
