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 Harvey Lyman Jones (ASN: 1385596), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with Company C, 123d Machine-Gun Battalion, 33d Division, American Expeditionary Forces, near Dannevoux, France, 3 October 1918. Under direct observation of the enemy and under heavy enemy artillery and machine-gun fire, Private Harvey rescued a wounded soldier who was lying exposed to heavy fire and close to the enemy’s lines. With great bravery he succeeded in carrying the wounded man to a place of comparative safety whence he was removed to the hospital.
