The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pride in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross (Posthumously) to Captain (Quartermaster Corps) Harry L. Fraser, United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with Quartermaster Corps, 5th Division, American Expeditionary Forces, near Brandeville, France, 10 November 1918. Captain Frazer was directing a working party, which was being heavily bombarded. Having been ordered to safety, Captain Fraser, thinking only of the welfare of his men, went forth to see that all had found shelter, and was instantly killed.
