Sgt. (R) Daniel Cowart is presented the Distinguished Service Cross during a retreat ceremony conducted in his honor on March 20 on Fort Hood's Cooper Field. Chris Widell, a friend of Cowart's who helped during his recovery, pinned the medal on Cowart's uniform. According to the citation for the award, in 2007 in Iraq, an insurgent his team encountered was wearing a suicide vest, and "Without hesitation and with utter disregard for his safety, Sgt. Cowart maneuvered under fire and engaged the insurgent in hand-to-hand combat." (Photo by Maj. Carson Petry, 2ABCT, 1CD Public Affairs)
