The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to George H. Dunn, Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Cierges, France, July 30, 1918. Early in the attack Sergeant Dunn was wounded in the leg by a bullet and ordered to the first-aid station, but he refused to leave and continued on in the advance. He assisted in the reorganization of his platoon and led a section forward in the attack. His conduct was of great value to his organization commander during this difficult operation.
