From my correspondent in the 1st Cav.
John,MOH recommendation moved up today for Division Commander�s signature. We had some bad weather in Taji, but the packet was eventually specially flown from his unit�s FOB. FYI his battalion is assigned to 2/1 ID, one of our 7 BCTs, but was task organized to 2nd Brigade, 2nd ID, another of our 7 BCTs, so a lot of units will get the privilege of honoring his heroism.
First Team.

As I alluded to in my post and Matthew Maynard points out in full - there are 141 precedents. And, as Matt has pointed out - the kid was a lion.
