The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Army Distinguished Service Medal to Brigadier General Paul Alexander Wolf, United States Army, for exceptionally meritorious and distinguished services to the Government of the United States, in a duty of great responsibility during World War I. In the attacks on Bois-de-Forges, St. Hilaire, Boise-de-Warville, and Bois-des-Hautes-Epines, France, in September and October 1918, the conspicuous success of the brigade was due to General Wolf’s splendid leadership and skill.
