Mood A. Randall

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Mood A. Randall, Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Catillon, France, October 19, 1918. When the advance was held up by enemy machine- gun fire, Sergeant Randall volunteered and led his platoon, which consisted of only eight men, under heavy enemy fire, in a successful attack on a machine-gun nest outflanking and putting same out of action, thereby enabling his company to continue advancing.
