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 Sergeant George H. Dunn (ASN: 1241813), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with Company M, 110th Infantry Regiment, 28th Division, American Expeditionary Forces, near Cierges, France, 30 July 1918. Early in the attack Sergeant Dunn was wounded in the leg by a bullet and ordered to the first-aid station, but he refused to leave and continued on in the advance. He assisted in the reorganization of his platoon and led a section forward in the attack. His conduct was of great value to his organization commander during this difficult operation.
