On October 12, 1944 Jack and the other men of Company I faced a heavily defended German machine gun position that was inflicting heavy casualties on the advancing Americans.  Ssg Pendleton volunteered to lead a squad on an attack on that position.  He gave his life to ensure his men reached their objective, ensuring the success of the Allied advance further into Germany.
