SEVEN AWARDED CROIX DE GUERRE

Due to the modesty of the University students who worked last year in the French ambulance service, a full account of their activities abroad has not been given by the CRIMSON. D. Rice '12, H. Suckley '10, E. J. Curley '04, S. Galatti '10, J. M. Mellen '17, and T. Putnam '16, captain of the University fencing team last year, all received Croix de Guerre from the French Government. Rice, Suckley, and Curley were cited to the army division, while Galatti, Mellen, and Putnam received citation to the Service de Sante de la Division. The service for which they were each given the Croix de Guerre may be learned from the following document which each received from the French Government: "Pendant quinze jours, assure nuit et jour, sur une route de montagne difficile, et constamment battue par les projectiles ennemis, Pevacuation de nombreux blesses, avec un zele et un devouement dignes de tous les eloges."

L. Hill '10, in command of the ambulance division, had received the Croix de Guerre in November for his splendid work in organizing the motor ambulance service.
