General Orders No. 44, W.D., 1919
The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Charles F. Sigg, First Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Mont Blanc, France, October 8, 1918. Sergeant Sigg was in charge of a convoy of trucks, loaded with artillery ammunition, of which our batteries were in urgent need. The site selected for the dump was under very heavy shell fire, but Sergeant Sigg, drawing his convoy up in sections directed the unloading throughout the rain of shells, which were exploding on all sides of his machines.
