Robert Fazler

The Distinguished Service Cross is presented to Robert Fazler, Private First Class, U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in action in Grand Pre, France, October 22, 1918. After delivering a message to his battalion headquarters, passing through the main street of Grand Pre, which was being enfiladed by a terrific enemy fire, Private Fazler went to the rescue of a comrade who had fallen under the direct fire and observation of the enemy, notwithstanding the warning that to go to the man’s aid would mean certain death to him. He gave the wounded man first-aid treatment and successfully carried him to a place of safety.
