General Orders 66, W.D., 1919
The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Dougald Ferguson, Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action at Cierges, northeast of Chateau-Thierry, France, August 1, 1918. When the infantry on his right was held up by fire from an enemy machine-gun, Sergeant Ferfuson seized a rifle and rushed around the flank of the enemy’s position, bayoneting two of the machine- gun crew and shooting the third, thus enabling the infantry to advance.
