Sgt. Arturo Ley, squad leader, 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, and Imperial, Calif. native, receives the Bronze Star Medal with Combat V during a ceremony May 23, 2013. A corpsman in Ley’s squad was wounded and separated from the rest of the Marines. Ley led Marines over open ground to the doc’s aid and helped drag the wounded corpsman to cover, where he received treatment. Ley continued to fight, even after sustaining a gunshot wound to the neck, during an assault on the enemy position. He remained calm and continued to lead his Marines until the end of the engagement.
