General Orders No. 37, W.D., 1919
The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Gail H. Sager, Corporal, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Ronssoy, France, September 29, 1918. Upon being wounded in the hand, Corporal Sager bandaged the wound himself and immediately returned to the firing line. He then picked up an automatic rifle, and, advancing alone toward machine-gun nests which were holding up his company, was killed after proceeding only a short distance.
