Later in February Heinhorst left Hawaii for Officer's Candidate school at Ft. Monmouth J.J. but was forced to drop the course because of his recurring back injury. He came to Scott Field and was attached to headquarters Sq. AAFTC as an instructor. In making the presentation of the Purple Heart Gen. Martin asked Heinhorst if he had fully recovered from his wounds and the latter replied in the affirmative. The general expressed the nation's appreciation for the sergeant's war service. With Gen. Martin at the ceremonies were Col. Wolcott P. Hayes commanding officer of Scott Field and Maj. W.W. Lilley post adjutant.
