Saluting a hero Retired Marine
Corps General Ray Davis — who graduated with a degree in chemical
engineering from Georgia Tech in 1938 — stands before a plaque at
Wardlaw Center honoring him as Tech’s only living recipient of the
Congressional Medal of Honor. President Harry Truman presented the nation’s
highest military honor to Davis in 1952 for his actions in the Korean
War two years earlier. Despite facing an overwhelming enemy force, Davis
led his battalion into an attack to save a rifle company and two marine
regiments from capture. He retired in 1972 as the Marine Corps’
second-highest ranking officer. | Georgia Tech's Homepage | News & Information | The Whistle | Notwithstanding any language to the contrary, nothing contained herein constitutes nor is intended to constitute an offer, inducement, promise, or contract of any kind.
