Sgt. Pedro Gonzales III, member of the Oklahoma Army National Guard, receives the Oklahoma Star of Valor on Thursday at the Regional Training Institute in Oklahoma City for his heroic actions in saving his neighbor’s life. In September 2020, Gonzales stepped between his neighbor and a man attacking her with a knife where he received multiple stab wounds to the face and neck. The medal is Oklahoma’s second highest military award which honors Oklahoma National Guard members who carry out heroic or valorous acts, typically involving risk of life or injury in the process of protecting another in non-combat circumstances.
