Home Town: Boston, MA
General Orders 89, W.D., 1919
The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Marion Sinatra, Private, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Chateau-Thierry, France, June 6, 1918. Rushing through rifle and machine-gun fire for a distance of 75 meters, Private Sinatra rescued a wounded comrade; and, while carrying him to safety, was himself seriously wounded. He continued on with his comrade, however, until he reached cover, administering first aid to the other man before attending to his own wound.
