An 'American Hero'
COEUR d'ALENE — Len Crosby's military service in the Army from 1964 to 1970 was marked, literally, by courage under fire.
Consider just some of his awards: Silver Star; two Bronze Stars for Valor; two Purple Hearts; Army Commendation Medal; Air Assault Badge; Combat Medic’s Badge and Soldier’s Medal.
During his career, he was infantry platoon leader with the 4th Infantry Division; infantry company commander with the 101st Airborne Division; served in the 5th Army Headquarters; two tours of duty in Vietnam, participating in the Tet Offensive; wounded twice, once by shrapnel and once by an enemy sniper.
