George Weitzenberg

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to George Weitzenberg, Sergeant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action at Neuvilly, France, September 25, 1918. Sergeant Weitzenberg voluntarily ran through violent enemy shellfire to the aid of two soldiers of another organization who had been struck by an exploding shell. Finding one dead and the other severely wounded, he administered first aid to the wounded soldier and remained with him until an ambulance could be brought up.
