I'm Corporal Savannah Mosby with your Marine Minute.
Staff Sgt. Patrick Maloney was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with a Combat "V" at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina Oct. 30th. While deployed in support of Operation Inherent Resolve in Aug. 2016, Maloney exposed himself to enemy fire to employ a heavy machinegun mounted in an open truck bed during an enemy ambush. Even with weapon malfunctions, he held back the attackers allowing Raiders to fight them off.
