During mission Benelux when the northern part of the front had to fall back, Right flank of 1st Squad was overwhelmed by enemies, 2 Soldiers went down and SPC was the only one standing. While engaged with enemies on his own, Hughson was also taking care of 2 casualties all by himself until the rest of the squad arrived.
