During his time as a squad leader in the 501 Infantry, 101 Airborne Division, he was recommended for\u00a0America&#8217;s highest award\u00a0for his actions on February 21, 1968, outside Hue , Vietnam.<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Vierkant responsief --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3607132294366157\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"5331534427\"\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>One of\u00a0Hooper&#8217;s personal heroes was Pfc Joe E Mann (502 PIR, 101 Airborne Division).\u00a0Just like Hooper,\u00a0Mann was a\u00a0soldier from Washington but who grew up in Reardon, and just like Hooper, Mann\u00a0was also awarded the MOH\u00a0but posthumously in WWII during Operation Market-Garden.

The mother pelican is rooted in ancient legend and symbolism. In time of famine,\u00a0using her beak, the Pelican pierced her own breast to feed her young preventing them from starvation. Another version of the legend\u00a0states that the mother fed\u00a0her starving\u00a0babies with her own blood to revive them from death but in turn\u00a0sacrificed her own life.<\/p>\n<p>Hooper felt a special connection to Mann, as apart from sharing the same christian name, both were from Washington and both served with the 101st Airborne Division. As a boy, while still in High School after reading about Mann, Hooper wrote an essay\u00a0about the Medal of Honor, focusing on Pfc Mann.

Staff Sergeant (then Sgt.) Hooper, U.S. Army, distinguished himself while serving as squad leader with Company D.<br \/>\nCompany D was assaulting a heavily defended enemy position along a river bank when it encountered a withering hail of fire from rockets, machineguns and automatic weapons. S\/Sgt. Hooper rallied several men and stormed across the river, overrunning several bunkers on the opposite shore. Thus inspired, the rest of the company moved to the attack. With utter disregard for his own safety, he moved out under the intense fire again and pulled back the wounded, moving them to safety. During this act S\/Sgt. Hooper was seriously wounded, but he refused medical aid and returned to his men. With the relentless enemy fire disrupting the attack, he single-handedly stormed 3 enemy bunkers, destroying them with handgrenade and rifle fire, and shot 2 enemy soldiers who had attacked and wounded the Chaplain. Leading his men forward in a sweep of the area, S\/Sgt. Hooper destroyed 3 buildings housing enemy riflemen. At this point he was attacked by a North Vietnamese officer whom he fatally wounded with his bayonet. Finding his men under heavy fire from a house to the front, he proceeded alone to the building, killing its occupants with rifle fire and grenades. By now his initial body wound had been compounded by grenade fragments, yet despite the multiple wounds and loss of blood, he continued to lead his men against the intense enemy fire. As his squad reached the final line of enemy resistance, it received devastating fire from 4 bunkers in line on its left flank. S\/Sgt. Hooper gathered several hand grenades and raced down a small trench which ran the length of the bunker line, tossing grenades into each bunker as he passed by, killing all but 2 of the occupants. With these positions destroyed, he concentrated on the last bunkers facing his men, destroying the first with an incendiary grenade and neutralizing 2 more by rifle fire. He then raced across an open field, still under enemy fire, to rescue a wounded man who was trapped in a trench. Upon reaching the man, he was faced by an armed enemy soldier whom he killed with a pistol. Moving his comrade to safety and returning to his men, he neutralized the final pocket of enemy resistance by fatally wounding 3 North Vietnamese officers with rifle fire.<\/p>\n<p>S\/Sgt. Hooper then established a final line and reorganized his men, not accepting treatment until this was accomplished and not consenting to evacuation until the following morning. His supreme valor, inspiring leadership and heroic self-sacrifice were directly responsible for the company&#8217;s success and provided a lasting example in personal courage for every man on the field. S\/Sgt. Hooper&#8217;s actions were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself and the U.S. Army .[\/read]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Ronnie Hooper of Moses Lake, Washington, is without a doubt the most decorated veteran of the Vietnam War.
