Citation
On February 19, 2010, Corporal Dale Kurdziel placed himself at great risk in order to defuse a large improvised explosive device (IED), in Afghanistan. With the IED located in a confined space, Corporal Kurdziel volunteered to dismantle it by hand. Equipped with a flashlight, he used his feet and elbows to propel himself inside. It took nearly two hours for Corporal Kurdziel to successfully remove all the IED components.
