132 Men on Honor Roll Killed in Action 33 Were Decorated

Of the 297 University men whose names have been placed on the University Honor Roll, arranged by the Harvard Memorial Society, 132 were killed in action in France, 107 died of disease, 33 were killed in accidents, and 25 died in hospitals of wounds received in action. Almost all of those who died of disease were serving in this country at the time and of these over 90 per cent succombed to influenza or to pneumonia, resulting from influenza. The majority of accident cases were due to mishaps in airplanes when the pilots were learning to handle them on the various training fields.

Of the 120 University men who have received various decorations for valliant service, 33 are on the Honor Roll. Of the men who have died in the service 21 received the "Croix de Guerre," 4, the "Legion d'Honeur," 4, the "Distinguished Service Cross."

These figures are not complete as the names of several University men have been received as killed, of whom no additional information has yet come in. The casualty lists add new names to this Honor Roll daily, and all those who die in the service before the signing of peace will be included in the final official University list.
