Col. Ann Hughes&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2023\/09\/05\/remarks-by-president-biden-at-presentation-of-the-medal-of-honor-to-army-captain-larry-l-taylor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">detailed<\/a>&nbsp;Taylor&#8217;s brave deeds near the village of Ap Go Cong,&nbsp;prior to Biden\u2019s sudden departure from the stage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Then-1st Lt. Taylor heard the call and came powering over at the command of a light fire team comprising two [two-man] Cobra helicopter gunships.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Upon arrival, Taylor &#8220;immediately requested illumination rounds and supporting artillery to assist with identifying the enemy positions,&#8221; even though the fulfillment of that order would make his aircraft similarly easier to see and target.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hazarding &#8220;intense enemy groundfire&#8221; and flying &#8220;at a perilously low altitude,&#8221; Taylor fed the enemy encircling the patrol team a constant stream of hot lead and rockets, and he did so for 45 minutes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>As all good things come to an end, Taylor&#8217;s team began running low on ammunition. However, the Americans below were not yet out of harm&#8217;s way. The Tennessean appealed to light to stop the encroaching darkness in its tracks.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outlet continued quoting Hughes, \u201cusing his chopper&#8217;s searchlight, Taylor began performing fake strafing runs on the enemy, thereby distracting them from the patrol team.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Running low on fuel, Taylor and his wingman pushed the insurgents back using up their remaining minigun rounds, then &#8220;directed the patrol team to move 100 yards towards the extraction point, where First Lieutenant Taylor, still under enemy fire, landed his helicopter and instructed the patrol team to climb aboard anywhere they could.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lt. Col. Hughes stressed that an extraction on a Cobra gunship was a &#8220;feat never before accomplished.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The narrow Cobra, an advanced version of which is still flown by the Marines, is a two-seat hotrod of a helicopter gunship made for fast attack, not troop carrying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is serious stuff, an award well deserved, but Biden just walked away after giving Taylor his medal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rep.
