  First Lieut. Edward Jirikowic received a citation for gallantry in action in the Philippine islands area in May 4, 1945 and was awarded the Silver Star medal. The citation reads: Lieut. Jirikowic descended a steep rocky slope under intense hostile machine gun and sniper fire to go to the aid of a wounded soldier. He pulled the casualty to a covered position and administered to his wounds. Lieut. Jirikowic's courageous behavior reflects great credit to himself and the Armed forces of the United States. Jirikowic enlisted October 1940 and was overseas since March 1942 with the company I 32nd division, 127th infantry.
