The U.S. House of Representatives unanimously approved a bill to rename The Dalles veterans’ clinic after Sergeant First Class Loren R. Kaufman, a native of The Dalles and one of Oregon’s 14 Medal of Honor recipients.  Kaufman served in the Army during World War II and the Korean War, and his actions during a battle at Yongsan in Korea are credited with helping his company regain its position when the enemy had taken commanding ground.  Oregon Second District Congressman Greg Walden noted on the House Floor Kaufman received the Medal of Honor from President Harry Truman for his actions.  Kaufman was killed in action in February 1951 and laid to rest in Willamette National Cemetery.  The bill now heads to the Senate, where Oregon’s Senators have introduced companion legislation.
