The "Overheating" Machine Gun That Let One Dentist Wipe Out 98 Japanese Troops in 15 Minutes
July 7, 1944—Saipan. As thousands of Japanese soldiers crashed through American lines during a massive banzai charge, Captain Ben Salomon ordered the wounded evacuated from his aid station. The U.S. Army dentist fought enemy troops inside the medical tent before rushing outside and taking control of an M1917 Browning machine gun. Alone and surrounded, Salomon held his position while injured Americans escaped toward safety. When American forces recovered the battlefield, Salomon was found beside the weapon with 98 enemy bodies lying in front of his position. His extraordinary final stand saved lives and eventually earned him the Medal of Honor. This is the true story of the battlefield dentist who refused to abandon his patients.
