When an enemy bullet tore through George S. Patton's body during WWI, PFC Angelo carried his commander to a shallow crater, bandaged his wound, and fought off the enemy for several hours. This heroic action saved Patton's life and earned the brave soldier a Distinguished Service Cross.

This careless accident that caused Patton's death occurred just one day before the four-star general's scheduled return to the United States for his retirement.
