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 Private First Class Howard H. Morrow (ASN: 1285169), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with Company F, 115th Infantry Regiment, 29th Division, American Expeditionary Forces, near Bois-de-Consenvoye, France, 8 October 1918. Going forward from his own lines through terrific machine-gun and artillery fire, Private Morrow rescued and brought to safety a wounded comrade. In the action of the next few days he was so severely wounded that he died shortly afterwards.
