I was having a hard time , Writing this ...I many years ago was overseas ...over 50 yrs ago, the tears kept coming, I was in the 19th infantry, a rifleman, and also from the far north, I Salute this Brave, Man , And will forget, this Native American Warrior , Salute !!!!!!!!
A real man who loved his
Men and his country God bless him RIP Woody you have my respect
I never did serve with this fine Soldier and Man. Glad I was not in the combat he was. Something tells me, he is also glad that I was not in his combat situations either. He fought them for all of us. What a MAN.
Extraordinary man from the Sioux nation, wanted by pro baseball for his 100 mph pitches, 6'4" tall, humble, athletic, serves in WWII then Korea saying he had to teach the young guys how to fight a war and survive. He performed countless medal of honor feats in battle saving many lives.
His team mates in war and his family worked to get him his Medal of Honor. After decades and tenacity, Woodrow Keeble received his medal.
Good work , he deserves the medal tenfold

The true selflessness of MSgt Keeble, is, to me, an inspiration for the ages. Thank God, his fellow solders persisted for the MOH, which is truly a no-brainer. America needs to be reminded on a regular basis of the multitude of sacrifices made by Woody and thousands - if not tens of thousands of unsung heroes, who were, and continue to be, instrumental in preserving the American dream and way of life. Untold numbers of individual acts throughout our history are the basis of what this country stands for. It is my hope and dreams that these acts never fade into the forgotten, for we would not be here in this capacity without their contributions.
Rest in power ❤
Thank you for your service. Your spirit shines on forever.
I was required to write a paper on a CMH recipient in an NCO school 20 yeears ago. I chose to write mine on MSG Keeble. Very amazing man. They didn't mention in this that after being that badly wounded and taking out the bunkers, he went right back into combat again the following day. Absolute Legend.

True Warrior!!!
I went through Waubay, South Dakota a few times and had seen the hero's sign. I was curious so I looked him up on the interweb. WOW, what a man to emulate! He's right up there with Audie Murphy and Col. James Howard!! I'm glad I found out more about this hero!! I'm proud he's from the tribe!!
A hero, without question.
"Somebody has to teach these boys how to fight!"
As a Veteran I am proud of this man for his Service. I am White and Would like to see more Native Americans recognized
An incredible man.
I salute this Badass Sioux American warrior.
A brave warriors..
There should be a "Platinum Level" of the CMH, and only a very select few would qualify, Woodrow Keeble would be among those select few. The Bravery and fortitude of a man doing by himself what 3 full platoons ,and artillery and air support, could not , is nothing short of incredible... Ronald Rosser is in my opinion also a " platinum level" CMH member for a feat similar to Keeble,s I salute them both
Incredible
God Bless
Great man
Patriot!
My favorite veteran
