By direction of the President, under the provisions of the act of Congress approved July 9, 1918 (Bul. No. 43, W.D., 1918), First Lieutenant (Corps of Engineers) G. B. DuBois, United States Army, is cited by the Commanding General, 3d Division, American Expeditionary Forces, and a silver star may be placed upon the ribbon of the World War I Victory Medals awarded him. While serving with the 6th Engineer Regiment, 3d Division, American Expeditionary Forces, Lieutenant DuBois, in command of the 6th Engineers Train, delivered a foot bridge which he had designed to the town of Mezy, France, in spite of all obstacles. Enemy artillery was delivering a seemingly impossible barrage on the road but Lieutenant DuBois led his train through it, filling shell holes and removing obstructions. At Crezancy, when it seemed impossible to proceed, he refused to turn back but held the train in that place and directed the work of repairing the road until it was possible to move forward. His courage and ability made it possible to concentrate the trucks in the town of Mezy under an extremely heavy bombardment and deliver the bridge material by truck to the bank of the Marne, which was at that time under enemy rifle, machine gun and artillery fire.
