The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross to Technical Sergeant [then Staff Sergeant] Abraham Jamail (ASN: 18114594), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy while serving was Section Sergeant of Weapons Platoon, Company G, 2d Battalion, 359th Infantry Regiment, 90th Infantry Division, in action against enemy forces on 4 July 1944, in the vicinity of St. Suzanne, France. Locating an enemy machine gun which was holding up the company’s advance, Technical Sergeant Jamail fired a rifle grenade into the position, routing the crew of three which he then killed by rifle fire. Receiving fire from the left, he then crossed a heavily mined field to a hedgerow which had been cleared by the enemy to give them better fields of fire. Moving along its embankment, he destroyed another machine gun with grenades and forced the surrender of four others. Reaching the enemy command post, Sergeant Jamail killed, wounded and captured the remainder of the group. Technical Sergeant Jamail’s extraordinary heroism, personal bravery and zealous devotion to duty exemplify the highest traditions of the military forces of the United States and reflect great credit upon himself, the 90th Infantry Division, and the United States Army.
