I don't have the citation text you mean, so I can't check the boxes yet. Please paste the citation (or tell me which Baker and provide a link).

If you want to check it yourself, look for these cues in the citation:
- "He protected the evacuation of the wounded" — language about covering, protecting, or evacuating wounded personnel.
- "He demonstrated outstanding courage and leadership" — explicit wording about courage, leadership, gallantry, or inspiring others.
- "He destroyed enemy troops and equipment" — phrases like killed, destroyed, silenced enemy positions, knocked out guns/vehicles.
- "He volunteered to lead an attack through a minefield" — an explicit statement that he volunteered to lead an assault through a minefield.

Paste the citation and I’ll mark the correct boxes.
