Clayton H. Moore

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Clayton H. Moore, Corporal, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action during the attack on Hilsennrst, France, July 6, 1918. While carrying a wounded soldier through machine-gun fire to shelter, Corporal Moore was wounded, but by unusual pluck he brought his comrade to safety, and, realizing the scarcity of stretchers, insisted on others being carried to the rear and himself walking.
