Bailey '18 Cited Three Times

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Luther R. Bailey '18, son of Dr. Marshall H. Bailey, has recently received his third citation. He enlisted February, 1917, as an ambulance driver in the French Army and has served continuously since then. Early in 1918 he was first cited and received the Croix de Guerre. Later he received a citation with the palm for "showing utter disregard of danger during an attack while keeping up communication between advanced posts despite extreme barrage fire, during which his ambulance was struck by numerous fragments of shell". His last citation, word of which has just been received, was for "particularly distinguishing himself under fire during the crossing of the Aisne".
