Gunnery Sergeant John Basilone was one of the most extraordinary heroes of World War II. At the Battle of Guadalcanal, he single-handedly held off a massive Japanese assault, keeping his machine guns firing through the night and saving his unit—an action that earned him the Medal of Honor.
Instead of accepting a safe role selling war bonds, Basilone demanded to return to combat. In 1945, he landed with the Marines at Iwo Jima, where he once again led from the front—destroying enemy positions before being killed in action.
In this video, we tell the powerful story of John Basilone’s courage, sacrifice, and why he remains the only enlisted Marine in U.S. history to receive both the Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross.
