Raymond Harvey, Lieutenant Colonel, United States Army Page 1 of 3 Raymond Harvey, Lieutenant Colonel, United States Army Page 1 of 3 Raymond Harvey Lieutenant Colonel, Unied States Army Raymond Harvey was born in Ford City, Pennsylvania, on March 1, 1920 to Frank and Frannie (Thomas) Harvey. His father was in the construction business. His mother, a Chickasaw Indian, was born in 1889 near the community of Nebo, Oklahoma. After living in Ford City for four years, the family moved to his mother’s hometown of Sulphur, Oklahoma. Raymond was educated in the schools of Sulphur and he graduated from Oklahoma City High School in 1939. On August 16, 1939, he enlisted in the United States Army and served with distinction in both the Second World War and in Korea. He retired from the service in 1962 after a career of almost twenty-three years. Following his retirement as a lieutenant colonel, he was employed by Northrup Corporation in California for five years, was self-employed as an investment banker for the next eleven years and served as the Director of Indian Affairs for the Arizona Division of Emergency Services until a stroke forced his retirement in 1981. While in the service, Raymond Harvey was decorated many times. These include the Distinguished Service Cross for gallantry in combat, three Silver Stars, three Bronze Stars, three Purple Hearts, ten Campaign stars, two Presidential Unit Citations, the Croix de Guerre with Palm (from the government of France), the Chung Mu Distinguished Service Medal with Gold Star (by the government of South Korea), a Combat Infantry Badge and seven additional medals. Perhaps Raymond’s finest moment came when, as Captain of Company C of the 117th Infantry, he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, our Nation’s highest military honor. In the presentation, President Harry S. Truman cited Raymond Harvey for "conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above and beyond the call of duty in action” on March 9, 1951 in the vicinity of Taemi-Dong, Korea. According to the Society of the Congressional Medal of Honor, Ray is one of only five Armstrong County natives to have ever received a Congressional Medal of Honor. His biography appeared in the prestigious Order of the Purple Heart in December of 1994 and was circulated to over one half million readers. With his exceptional bravery, burial as a national hero in Arlington National Cemetery, the widespread publication of his name and good and noble deeds, Raymond Harvey has “brought lasting fame and recognition to the Ford City area”, as written in the by laws of the Ford City Area Hall of Fame. Ray was the recipient of numerous awards during the course of his extraordinary life. He received the Clyde Elrod Award for his “outstanding contributions to the Bureau of Emergency Indian Affairs”, the Medal of Valor in Arizona, the George Washington Award from the state of Arizona, the Military Order of Distinguished Service and Patriotism Award, the Retired Officers Association Heritage Award, the Medal of Honor from New York City, the American Red Cross Certificate of Merit and the “Man of the Year” from Pasadena, California for his participation in the People to People program. Ray passed away on November 18,1996 in Scottsdale, Arizona. Internment took place on December 6, 1996 in Arlington National Cemetery. Honorary pallbearers included Brigadier General Joseph Foss, Sergeant Sylvester Herrera and Chief Warrant Officer Fred Ferguson. The final salute was given by the Combined Honor Guard of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3513 and the Ray Harvey Chapter of Korean War Veterans Association of Arizona. The Congressional Medal of Honor Citation was read by Donald Parks, PhD., a Korean War paratrooper. Next came the eulogy by Lieutenant General Frank Sackton, Professor of Public Affairs at Arizona State University. “I’m Free” was read by Brigadier General Bradford Smith. The recitation of this poem was followed with a prayer by Cynthia Perieira, Ray’s daughter. In his eulogy, Lieutenant General Sackton said, “we are here to say goodbye to a dear friend and colleague and a distinguished member of our military family. The word ‘distinguished’ doesn’t seem adequate to express the deeds and the contributions that Ray made for our country. The Medal of Honor was awarded to Ray for his heroic deeds in Korea by a grateful country. Ray was a gentleman of honor, a public servant of outstanding distinction, an animated and articulate spirit and a colleague whose friendship was a delight. St. Paul in his second epistle to Timothy fully expressed the character of Ray; ’I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.'" Ray is survived by his widow, Pamela Harvey of Scottsdale, Arizona, daughters Cynthia Perieira, Johnece Firestone and Margie Typer, son Michael, sister Mary Nesse and eight grandchildren. HARVEY, RAYMOND Rank and organization: Captain, U.S. Army, Company C, 17th Infantry Regiment. Place and date: Vicinity of Taemi-Dong, Korea, 9 March 1951. Entered service at: Pasadena, Calif. Born: 1 March 1920 Ford City, Pa. G.O. No.: 67, 2 August 1951. Citation: Captain Harvey Company C, distinguished himself by conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above and beyond the call of duty in action. When his company was pinned down by a barrage of automatic weapons fire from numerous well-entrenched emplacements, imperiling accomplishment of its mission, Captain Harvey braved a hail of fire and exploding grenades to advance to the first enemy machine gun nest, killing its crew with grenades. Rushing to the edge of the next emplacement, he killed its crew with carbine fire. He then moved the 1st Platoon forward until it was again halted by a curtain of automatic fire from well fortified hostile positions. Disregarding the hail of fire, he personally charged and neutralized a third emplacement. Miraculously escaping death from intense crossfire, Captain Harvey continued to lead the assault. Spotting an enemy pillbox well camouflaged by logs, he moved close enough to sweep the emplacement with carbine fire and throw grenades through the openings, annihilating its five occupants. Though wounded he then turned to order the company forward, and, suffering agonizing pain, he continued to direct the reduction of the remaining hostile positions, refusing evacuation until assured that the mission would be accomplished. Captain Harvey's valorous and intrepid actions served as an inspiration to his company, reflecting the utmost glory upon himself and upholding the heroic traditions of the military service.

    List of Native American Medal of Honor recipients 1 List of Native American Medal of Honor recipients This is a list of Native Americans awarded the nation's highest military decoration — the Medal of Honor. The Medal of Honor is bestowed "for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life, above and beyond the call of duty, in actual combat against an armed enemy force." The medal is awarded by the President of the United States on behalf of the Congress. Of the 3,469 Medals of Honor awarded as of 2010, 28 have been awarded to Native Americans. The Medal of Honor was created during the American Civil War and is the highest military decoration presented by the United States government to a member of its armed forces. The recipient must have distinguished themselves at the risk of their own life above and beyond the call of duty in action against an enemy of the United States. Due to the nature of this medal, it is commonly presented posthumously.[1] List of recipients This along with * indicates that the Medal of Honor was awarded posthumously William Alchesay Elsatsoosu Gregory "Pappy" Pompey Factor Boyington List of Native American Medal of Honor recipients 2 Mitchell Red Cloud Woodrow Keeble Name Tribe/Nation Rank Place of action Date of Notes Service Conflict action Co-Rux-Te-Chod-Ish Pawnee Army Sergeant Indian Republican July 8, 1869 "Ran out from the Wars River, Kansas command in pursuit of a dismounted Indian; was shot down and badly wounded by a bullet from his own command" Chiquito White Mountain Army Scout Indian

  • History of the 7Th Infantry Division
    History of the 7th Infantry Division BAYONET! The BAYONET was forged in the fields of France, tempered on the frozen tundra and mountains of the Aleutians, the coral atolls and islands of the South Pacific, and then honed razor sharp in the mountains and rice paddies of Korea. The Bayonet--or the 7th Infantry Division, as it is officially known--continued to stand guard in Korea, manning our outpost line in strife-ridden Korea until 1971 when the Division was returned to US soil for the first time since 1943. The Division was assigned to Fort Lewis, Washington, and inactivated for a brief period of time. In October 1985, the Division was resurrected as the 7th Infantry Division (Light) at its old post, Fort Ord, California. The Lightfighters of the Bayonet Division were called to the Honduras in 1988 for "Operation Golden Pheasant" and to Panama in 1989-90 for "Operation Just Cause." In August 1993, the Division was reassigned to Fort Lewis and subsequently inactivated in June 1994. The 7th Infantry Division was re-activated June 4, 1999, at Fort Carson, Colorado and inactivated in August 2006. The Division is now being re- activated at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washing on October 1, 2012. WORLD WAR I Organized originally to serve in the AEF in World War I, the 7th (its Hourglass insignia dates back to 1918) saw little action as a unit, although it carried some notoriety by having helped the S. S. Leviathan set a troop- carrying record of 13,585 passengers on one crossing. It was October 11, a month before the Armistice, when the 7th was shelled for the first time.
