George F. Myers

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to George F. Myers, Private First Class, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Hill 272, Argonne Forest, France, October 9, 1918. When the advance of his company had been stopped by machine-gun fire, Private Myers, alone and on his own initiative, advanced into the fog under intense fire, and, with a total disregard for personal safety, captured the gun and its entire crew.
