The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Army Distinguished Service Medal to Major Malcolm H. M. Lamb, Royal British Army, for exceptionally meritorious and distinguished service in a position of great responsibility to the Government of the United States, during World War I. As Chief of Intelligence, Line Communications, British Expeditionary Forces, Major Lamb assisted most ably in the organization, instruction, and working of the American Intelligence Section in the Services of Supply. Due to his advice, experience and aid many of the difficult problems confronting our Services of Supply during its preliminary organization were successfully overcome. The services which he rendered the American Expeditionary Forces were most valuable.
