The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross to Private First Class Max C. Chamberlin (ASN: 56599), United States Army, for extraordinary heroism in action while serving with Company A, 28th Infantry Regiment, 1st Division, A.E.F., south of Soissons, France, 19 July 1918. Although twice wounded by machine-gun fire, Private Chamberlin continued on in the assault wave and assisted in driving the enemy from their positions. The courage of this noncommissioned officer was a material factor in the capture of a number of prisoners. (Contributed by Barry C)
