FORT BRAGG, N.C. — Two Special Forces soldiers based in North Carolina will be awarded for repeatedly risking their lives to help their unit mates during battles in Afghanistan.

Master Sgt. Anthony Siriwardene and Staff Sgt. Lindsey W. Clarke will be awarded the Silver Star on Wednesday.

Clarke exposed himself to enemy fire to save his teammates during an ambush in 2009. Siriwardene flanked enemy machine guns repeatedly during a 56-hour gunfight in 2005.
