Guy L. Hartman

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Guy L. Hartman, First Lieutenant, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Frapelle, France, August 17, 1918. After having been painfully wounded Lieutenant Hartman refused to go to the rear for treatment. He made his way through a heavy barrage, and brought up a platoon that was stopped by heavy fire. Some time later, after having his wound dressed he conducted his brigade commander through a heavily gassed area, after which he remained constantly on duty until relieved.
