The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Patrick J. Clark, Private First Class, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action near Thiaucourt, France, September 13, 1918. On two occasions Private Clark unhesitatingly went through heavy machine-gun fire, carrying messages. Later, when volunteers were called for to take a message through a violent barrage, he was the first to respond.
