Displaying a complete disregard for his own safety, Malone left cover to advance across open ground in order to collect his Troop Sergeant who had become isolated in the killing area. Malone's fighting prowess and gallantry turned the tide of the battle and led directly to the successful extraction of 10 Troop from a deadly ambush.
