Fred Adcook Lieuallen

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Fred Adcook Lieuallen, Captain (Medical Corps), U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Sergy, France, July 28 – 31, 1918. Captain Lieuallen operated a dressing station for two days under unusually heavy enemy fire. Our front line was for a time bent back by the enemy, thus exposing his position to capture by the enemy; he refused to leave the dressing station, and continued to attend to the needs of 100 wounded men until the lost ground was retaken by our troops. This officer performed gallant service also at St. Thibaut, France, August 6 – 12, 1918, while maintaining a dressing station with the advanced elements under heavy enemy fire.
