With complete disregard for his own wound Corporal HEINEKAMP went to the aid of his comrades and treated their injuries while still under fire. He led them safely to the aid station and not until then were his own serious wounds cared for. He was evacuated when daylight came. His unselfish loyalty to his comrades, and calmness under fire, reflected great credit upon himself and his organization.
