It is broken down by conflict (i.e. Civil War, WWI, WW2, Korea etc. etc.etc.)

An example is Rodger Young (of Starship Trooper fame)

YOUNG, RODGER W.

Rank and organization: Private, U.S. Army, 148th Infantry, 37th Infantry
Division. Place and date: On New Georgia, Solomon Islands, 31 July 1943.
Entered service at: Clyde, Ohio. Birth: Tiffin, Ohio. G.O. No.: 3, 6 January
1944. Citation: On 31 July 1943, the infantry company of which Pvt. Young was
a member, was ordered to make a limited withdrawal from the battle line in
order to adjust the battalion's position for the night. At this time, Pvt.
Young's platoon was engaged with the enemy in a dense jungle where observation
was very limited. The platoon suddenly was pinned down by intense fire from a
Japanese machinegun concealed on higher ground only 75 yards away. The initial
burst wounded Pvt. Young. As the platoon started to obey the order to
withdraw, Pvt. Young called out that he could see the enemy emplacement,
whereupon he started creeping toward it. Another burst from the machinegun
wounded him the second time. Despite the wounds, he continued his heroic
advance, at! tracting enemy fire and answering with rifle fire. When he was
close enough to his objective, he began throwing handgrenades, and while doing
so was hit again and killed. Pvt. Young's bold action in closing with this
Japanese pillbox and thus diverting its fire, permitted his platoon to
disengage itself, without loss, and was responsible for several enemy
casualties.
