The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pride in presenting a Bronze Oak Leaf Cluster in lieu of a Second Award of the Silver Star (Posthumously) to Corporal Daniel J. Sullivan (ASN: 31006089), United States Army, for gallantry in action while serving with Headquarters Battery, 32d Field Artillery Battalion, 1st Infantry Division, in action against the enemy in North Africa in 1943. After completing his mission as a member of an Artillery Liaison Party, Corporal Sullivan, on his own initiative, proceeded through heavy enemy machine gun and mortar fire and rendered first aid to an enlisted soldier who had been wounded; he assisted in carrying this wounded soldier three and one-half miles to safety. His gallant actions and dedicated devotion to duty, without regard for his own life, were in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Army.
