Hauterman was a medic with the Medical Platoon, 1st Battalion, 32nd Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division, when his unit was attached to the 31st Regimental Combat Team as one of its infantry battalions for the mission at Chosin Reservior.

“For three days and four nights, the unit battled the 80th Division of the Chinese People’s Volunteer Forces,” a federal press release said.
