CITATION:

Bronze Star : The President of the United States of America, authorized by Executive Order 11046, 24 August 1962, takes pleasure in presenting the Bronze Star Medal with Combat "V" to Sergeant Travis D. Dunn, United States Army, for valorous achievement as a Ranger Squad Leader in Company B, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment,, for a Joint Task Force in support of Operation ENDURING FREEDOM in Afghanistan, on 2 December 2014. During this period, Sergeant Dunn maneuvered on multiple enemy fighting positions over a sustained six-hour direct fire engagement resulting in the elimination of over 25 enemy combatants. Without regard for his own personal safety, Sergeant Dunn closed with an armed enemy in both a close ambush and on three barricaded shooters. Sergeant Dunn's poise while under direct fire undoubtedly saved the lives of numerous Rangers and directly contributed to the success of the Joint Task Force. Through his distinctive accomplishments, Sergeant Dunn reflected great credit upon himself, this Command, and the United States Army.
