World War I
General Orders No. No. 132, W.D., 1918
The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Ezra M. Muse, Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action at Chateau-Thierry, France, May 31 to June 4, 1918. While commanding a machine-gun in a building which had been struck three times, Sergeant Muse remained at his post, though told he might leave, because he had a better field of fire from this building tan could be obtained elsewhere.
