The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Don E. Sharp, Private, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action during the Aisne-Marne offensive, France, July 31, 1918. Though he had been twice wounded, Private Sharp continued to render first aid to the wounded men of his command until killed by enemy fire. His splendid example of high courage and coolness under intense enemy machine-gun and artillery fire and his unselfish devotion to duty inspired his comrades to great endeavors.
