To have treated 93 soldiers in less than 24 hours by on that was wounded beginning from the beginning and hit multiple times after that is definitely above and beyond the call of duty in my opinion. To those 34 KIA he may have treated some of them if nothing else but to lessen the pain and be with them. To the 59 wounded, he may even saved their lives. Doing all of this while wounded to the point that he was wounded to the point that he couldn’t even use his own legs, is nothing short of miraculous. Bless you Pfc. Sasser.
Another true hero, himself injured, who, "...crawled and dragged himself from wounded soldier to wounded soldier," to take care of his charges. Thank you, Tara Ross!
Clarence Sasser, another Hero just doing his job. Nothing special. Of course, Mr. Sasser felt that way because, he was doing his job.
Only, he did it over and over and over again during the darkness and in a deep rice paddy while severely wounded, continuingly being shot at and while out of medical supplies as the only surviving Medic. No, Clarence Sasser is an American Hero who more than earned a MOH for a job well done. Thank you Sir and may God bless you. May God bless all who have served or currently serve this great nation. Thank you Tara for another week of MOH stories.
Tara the stories that you bring to us reminds me that there are people out there who put, in the heat of battle, others above self. This PFC medic literally crawled from injured man to injured man to tend to them when he was injured himself. Then when awarded the highest medal, was like "I just did my job." How like these men and women to say and think hey I didn't do anything that someone else wouldn't have done. They are a special breed of humans.
Men like medic Clarence Sasser seem almost super human. To continue to help the wounded and dying men when he was badly injured himself shows such fortitude. Of course, like so many other MOH recipients he didn’t think he’d done anything above and beyond his duty. You gave us a great week of MOH recipients, Tara. Thank you!
Another fabulous story compliments of of Tara Ross. When on Run For the Wall, we emphasize Remember Their Names, Tell Their Stories, Never Let Them Be Forgotten. This highlights that directive. What a hero! Wounded and still caring for others without any selfish regard for himself, Clarence Sasser is remembered today! Thank you Tara for bringing these men and women who served and sacrificed to us. It was a wonderful boost to start my day.
Thank you for such a heroic story. So thankful for the many who did not give a second thought to that which they were called to do. So many survived because of it.
"It was my job" the mantra of so many of these brave men. Thanks Tara for another hero week!
Thank you, Tara, for this story of a hero saving lives during the heat of battle!
Over and over again Sasser saved lives and relieved pain as he suffered through pain himself. He put those around him ahead of himself!
Humble is a Hero!
Wow. He just died in May.
Wow! So sorry to hear that…
What an amazing man! Thank you for this story!

🇺🇸“It was my job,” he said simply. “I don’t think what I did was above and beyond.”

It seems being humble is a trait of many MOH'ers. Thank you Tara for all you do. 😊🍎

The story of a life-saver! Wisdom kept him laying low so he could help so many others. Well done!
Simply put, his actions were definitely above and beyond. Thank you Clarence for your courage and bravery.
