Today's Medal of Honor Moment for 4 July

Argghhh!
There are nine Medals awarded for actions on this day.  War recognizes few holidays.

As is pretty usual for the Medal, we start with the Civil War.  First - the battle of Monterey Mountain, when Kilpatrick's cavalry harried Imboden's retreating Confederates and at Monterey Mountain, savaged a supply convoy.  The second was earned at the siege of Port Hudson, Louisiana.
