One crewman was caught inside the burning tank. Sgt Sadowski was killed when he went back to attempt to rescue him. He was posthumously awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor on 23 April 1945 for his heroic action. In addition to being honored on a monument in Valhey, France, the Sadowski Field House at Fort Knox is named in his honor.
