BY HARRISON SMITH

Duane E. Dewey, who received
the Medal of Honor for smother-
ing a grenade with his body to
save fellow Marines during the
Korean War, and whose recovery
from grievous injuries led Presi-
dent Dwight D. Eisenhower to
quip, “You must have a body of
steel,” died Oct. 11 at a nursing
home in St. Augustine, Fla. He
was 89.
The Congressional Medal of
Honor Society announced his
death but did not give a cause.
Only three Medal of Honor recipi-
ents survive from the Korean War,
the organization said.
The fighting that nearly ended
Mr. Dewey’s life began around
midnight on April 16, 1952, when
a grenade whizzed over his fox-
hole just as he ducked down to
light a cigarette. Then came a
second grenade, followed by an
eruption of gunfire that would
last until morning. As Mr. Dewey
later put it, “A ll hell broke loose.”
Mr. Dewey, a 20-year-old Ma-
rine corporal who had grown up
in the farmland of western Michi-
gan, was defending an outpost
near Panmunjom, a Korean vil-
lage along the 38th parallel where
military leaders would sign an
armistice the next year. He soon
realized that he and his 80-man
unit of the 2nd Battalion, 5th
Marines, 1st Marine Division
were far outnumbered, facing
perhaps 700 Chinese soldiers.
Ta king charge of his machine
gun squad, he unleashed a contin-
uous barrage of fire, prompting a
comrade to warn that he might
burn out the barrel. When his unit
was ordered to pull back and
tighten its perimeter, he located a
large rock that offered some cov-
er, and continued directing fire
before running off to search for
ammunition.
He had just returned when a
grenade detonated behind his left
heel, launching shrapnel into his
left leg and buttocks and sending
him to the ground. A hospital
corpsman arrived to examine the
wounds, and was taking off Mr.
Dewey’s bloody pants when an-
other grenade rolled next to them.
Mr. Dewey later recalled that
his first impulse was to throw the
grenade away to save himself and
his men, including an assistant
gunner who was also being treat-
ed for injuries. But he was lying
flat on his back, and worried he
wouldn’t be able to throw the
grenade far enough. According to
the Medal of Honor citation, he
“pulled the corpsman to the
ground and, shouting a warning
to the other Marines around him,
bravely smothered the deadly
missile with his body, personally
absorbing the full force of the
explosion to save his comrades
from possible injury or death.”
In a 2011 video interview, Mr.
Dewey recalled saying before the
explosion, “Hit the dirt, Doc, I’ve
got it in my hip pocket.” His next
words were, “Get me the hell out
of here, I can’t take much more of
this.”
Mr. Dewey was evacuated to a
bunker full of wounded men,
where he received a shot of mor-
phine and spent the rest of the
night wondering if he would
bleed out or be shot by Chinese
troops. American forces held out,
and he was sent to a field hospital
at daybreak, where doctors dis-
covered that he had also taken a
bullet in the stomach. He r eceived

CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR SOCIETY

Duane E. Dewey, seen in 2011, received the Medal of Honor for
smothering a grenade with his body to save fellow Marines in 1952.


a Purple Heart and spent more
than four months in military hos-
pitals.
Awarding the Medal of Honor
to Mr. Dewey in a White House
ceremony on March 12, 1953,
Eisenhower noted his “body of
steel,” then added that if the gre-
nade “had been one of ours, it
would have blown you to pieces.”
Mr. Dewey agreed. He o ften noted
that he had been lucky to survive
the blast, which “put a good-size
hole” in his hip but missed his
spine, and recalled that while he
was bleeding in the bunker, he
thought only of his wife, Bertha,
and his infant daughter, who was
born after he left for Korea.
“I didn’t pray for myself,” he
told the Muskegon (Mich.) Chron-
icle in 2006. “I prayed to God that
she’d (Bertha) find a nice hus-
band... that she’d find a good
father for our baby.”
Duane Edgar Dewey was born

in Grand Rapids, Mich., on
Nov. 16, 1931, and grew up on a
farm outside Kalkaska, Mich. His
father struggled to find work be-
fore getting a job at a foundry in
Muskegon, where Mr. Dewey
went to high school. He dropped
out at age 16 to live with relatives
in South Haven, 60 miles to the
south, where he worked at a farm
and foundry before joining the
Marines in March 1951.
Mr. Dewey arrived in Korea
that October and was discharged
from the Marines the next year.
Returning home to South Haven
after receiving the Medal of Hon-
or, he received a new, fully fur-
nished three-bedroom home,
built and donated by the commu-
nity. He later worked at a piano
factory, drove a school bus and
ran his own office-machine repair
shop before retiring in 1973, split-
ting his time between Michigan
and Florida.
His wife of 68 years, the former
Bertha Bierhalter, died in 2020.
Survivors include two children,
Arline Broome of South Haven
and Dwight Dewey of Durham,
N.C.; two grandsons; and four
great-grandchildren.
Mr. Dewey often spoke at v eter-
ans events, traveling at times to
conferences hosted by the Con-
gressional Medal of Honor Soci-
ety. Getting the award “means a
lot to me,” he said in the 2011
video, before adding that each
time he put it on he also thought
about comrades who deserved
the honor but never received it. “I
didn’t d o anything that somebody
else in my position wouldn’t have
done,” he said.
