Henry F. Warner

Henry Fred Warner (August 23, 1923 – December 21, 1944) was a United States Army soldier who received the Medal of Honor for his actions during World War II.

During a battle on that day, near Bütgenbach, Belgium, Warner continued to man his anti-tank gun through the night and into the next morning, despite intense fire from the approaching German tanks.

Disregarding his injuries, he endeavored to finish the loading and again fire at the tank whose motor was now aflame, when a second machinegun burst killed him.

Warner's gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty contributed materially to the successful defense against the enemy attacks.

[2]Warner Barracks (German: Panzer, LaGarde und Artillerie Kasernen) in Bamberg, West Germany was named in honor of him.
