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 Private First Class Don Dunn (ASN: 1472688), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with 140th Ambulance Company, 110th Sanitary Train, 35th Division, American Expeditionary Forces, near Charpentry, France, 29 September 1918. Working as a litter bearer in the advanced area, when our front line dropped back, Private First Class Dunn remained on the field alone during the night, dressed the wounds of a number of soldiers, and carried them to the protection of a shell hole, later carrying them back to the Dressing Station. He continually exposed himself to machine-gun and artillery fire during this work.
