George H. Ammons

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to George H Ammons, Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Remonville, France, October 31, 1918. While in charge of the limbers and horses of a platoon sent to the front line infantry trenches, Sergeant Ammons, although himself wounded, took the place of a driver who had fallen from his horse. He refused medical attention until all the pieces were in position and the limbers and horses taken to a place of safety.
