Charles H. Coolidge
Charles Henry Coolidge (born August 4, 1921) is a former United States Army soldier and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in World War II.
==Biography==
Coolidge joined the Army from his birth city of Signal Mountain, Tennessee in June 1942,〔(WWII Army Enlistment Records )〕 and by October 24, 1944, was serving as a technical sergeant in Company M, 141st Infantry Regiment, 36th Infantry Division. During an enemy attack on that day and the following three days, east of Belmont-sur-Buttant in France, Coolidge assumed command of his group and showed conspicuous leadership. For his actions during the battle, he was awarded the Medal of Honor in July 1945.
Coolidge currently resides near Chattanooga, Tennessee, where a highway and park have been named for him. He still goes to work every day at the family business, Chattanooga Printing and Engraving, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2010. On September 15, 2006, he was belatedly awarded the Légion d'honneur by officials of the French consulate at a ceremony in Coolidge Park.
Coolidge was inducted into the John Sevier Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution in March 2015.
