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 Technician Fifth Grade Calvin James Randolph (ASN: 33337341), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy while serving as a Medical Aidman with the 2d Infantry Regiment, 5th Infantry Division, in action against enemy forces in Luxembourg, on 18 January 1945. On that date, during action near Ingellorf, Luxembourg, Technician Fifth Grade Randolph learned that three wounded soldiers lay in a field exposed to intense enemy fire. Without thought of his own safety, completely exposed to enemy observation, he entered the dangerous area and succeeded in evacuating two of the wounded men through the hail of fire which tore his clothing. While bravely attempting to rescue the third soldier Technician Fifth Grade Randolph was killed, but his heroism lives on as a constant inspiration to his comrades. Technician Fifth Grade Randolph’s courage and supreme, unselfish devotion to duty at the cost of his life, exemplify the highest traditions of the military forces of the United States and reflect great credit upon himself, the 5th Infantry Division, and the United States Army.
