Bob Williams summed Bud up well as "he was one of the 90th soldiers who received the MOH for his World War II actions and a very impressive gentleman who chose education as his way to spread peace.

Bud was a member of the unit my father was in and I met him several times at the reunions which I attended with my Dad. He was a real nice guy.
4 Members of the 90th Division were awarded the MOH during WWII. He was the last surviving MOH recipient of the 90th.
