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 Captain (Medical Corps) Fred Adcook Lieuallen, United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving as Senior Medical Officer, 3d Battalion, 47th Infantry Regiment (Attached), 4th Division, American Expeditionary Forces, near Sergy, France, July 28 – 31, 1918. Captain Lieuallen operated a dressing station for two days under unusually heavy enemy fire. Our front line was for a time bent back by the enemy, thus exposing his position to capture by the enemy; he refused to leave the dressing station, and continued to attend to the needs of 100 wounded men until the lost ground was retaken by our troops. This officer performed gallant service also at St. Thibault, France, August 6 – 12, 1918, while maintaining a dressing station with the advanced elements under heavy enemy fire.
