​The citation for honoree DFC Gentry reads: On 2 January 2021 in the face of extreme danger DFC Camron Gentry engaged an armed suspect without regard to himself. He placed himself between the suspect and innocent citizens. The suspect opened fire, striking DFC Gentry multiple times. Despite his wounds, he advised dispatch of the situation and requested immediate assistance. DFC Gentry’s extraordinary courage in the face of danger by placing his body between the suspect and himself brings great credit to himself, the community he serves, and the Loudoun County Sheriff’s office. For exceptional bravery and heroism, he was awarded the National Society Sons of the American Revolution Heroism Medal and Citation.

He applied tourniquets to two life-threatening wounds and administered first aid to other wounded. Medical professionals credit DFC Ewing’s actions for saving the life of DFC Gentry. For exceptional service to his community, to his fellow man, and to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s office DFC Ewing was awarded the National Society Sons of the American Revolution Life Saving Medal and Citation.
