General Orders No. 37, W.D., 1919
The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Phillip Miller, Private, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Vaux- Andigny, France, October 13, 1918. Seeking shelter with his company from the severe artillery and machine-gun fire of the enemy, Private Miller entered a shell hole. Here he found a severely wounded soldier, and without hesitation carried the man 50 yards under plain view of the enemy and exposed to terrific fire to a place of safety with some of his company.
