  Staff Sergeant Carl J. Swedberg, Kaukauna, with the 33rd division on Luzon helped stop a Japanese night counterattack. His company had occupied the position late in the afternoon after two days of bitter fighting with the fanatical Japanese. Shortly after midnight about 50 Japanese stormed the American positions where Sgt. Swedberg and his rifle squad were. After countless mortar, machine gun and rifle duels, the enemy was driven off. He directed his squad's fire and defense while the engagement was taking place. Swedberg has been in service for nearly three years, two of them which have been spent in the Pacific theater.
