Canton Soldier Swims River In Korea To Burn Red Rafts
Pvt Virgil Muntean and three other U S infantrymen swam 125 yards across the Naktong River under heavy fire to reach and burn Japanese style rafts being prepared for an enemy crossing. They sprayed the rafts with gasoline and set them ablaze before making the perilous return swim, with tanks and artillery in supporting positions nearby.
