In the meantime oon- gro.ss has picket! out a few sample lighting Yanks and awarded thorn the Medal of Honor, not for doing their more duty, hut for "conspicu ous gallantry and Intrepidity ahove iiml hevond the call of duty." In cidentally, this list could he easily doublet! and troblod. Again: The names of American soldlora who wear other American, Hrltlsh and French decorations are legion ; .six of the 11MXM) Americans who fought with the Canadians were awarded the Victoria Cross, the Hrltlsh decoration correspond ing to the Medal of Honor. One out of 15,400 sol diers In action received tho Medal of Honor. I would like to see tho olllclal citations setting forth the acts of supremo courage of each of those 78 medalists printed In full in every newspaper In the land. I would like to see these citations made Into a text-hook and put Into the public schools. I am not bloodthirsty, but I approve elllclency, even In killing Huns. Anil I think such a book would be an incentive to patriotism to every red blooded American boy and girl our future citi zens. As it is, there is space for little hero besides the names of the medalists. Study the list and find out many Interesting things for yourself. You will note, for Instance, that '21 are oillcers nntl r7 enlisted men. Nineteen paid the price with their lives. New York leads with nine; Illi nois is second with seven, and California, Missouri, New Jersey, South Carolina und Tennessee bliaro third honors with six each. Military experts have long regarded tho Marines the most etllclent fighting men of all the armies of the world. Nevertheless, ill) of tho medals go to the men or the National Guards; 2a to men of the M'loctlvo draft organizations, 1H to regular army ami marine units, 2 to the tank corps and 1 to the air service. Hy divisions, the Thirtieth leads with 12 medals; It Is the National Gaurd organization of the Caro Unas and Tennessee. Second honors go to tho Klghty-nlnth division, which Is the selective draft unit of western Missouri, Kansas, Nebraskn. Colo rado, South Dakota and Now Mexico. The third Is the Thlrtv-thlrd or National Guard Division of Illinois. Fourth honors go to the famous Second division of regulars, which Includes the murines, while fifth phico is shared by the two ev lork divisions, the Twenty-seventh and the Seventy- seventh. ," , , , Sergeant Hills, n regular, put In a whole day far in advance of tho first wave of his company re ducing maohlne-gun nests single-handed. He killed many of tho enemy and captured ten machine guns and more than GO prisoners. Lieutenant Woodflll, also a regular, reduced three separate machine-gun nests, killing at least 12 of tho enemy with rlllu and pistol and finally two with a pick. Lieutenant Luke, an elglitcen-year-ohl volunteer avlntor, destroyed 18 enemy aircraft In 17 days. Wounded and forced to make a landing, ho killed attacking Germans with his pistol until ho fell. Sergeant York was originally a sincere conscl tuitions objector, lie was convinced from the Hlblo tlint "blessed are tho peacemakers." So he went over to help make peace. He killed 24 of tho enemy with rlllo and pistol, put a whole "cdne gun battalion out of business and marched Ml prisoners back to tho American lines. Kvery possible kind of courage was shown by these medalists. Hoberts, when his tank slid Into a Hooded shell hole, deliberately gave his life to bave his gunner. Hlackwell gavo his llfo In a vol unteer attempt to get through heavy lire with ii message. Whittlesey is the "Go to hell" ofilcer of Argonue fame, who would not surrender. Lomiiii wears uIbo tho Victoria Cross, Legion of Honor, tho Medalllo Mlllltalro and the Croix do Guerre. Don't forget tho cartoon In which tho one-armed hero and tho potential hero who never got to tho rlng-Hno aro each saying "You lucky guy 1" And don't forget tho potential heroes. Their hearts were broken. The Complete List. Adklnson, Joseph Q., sergeant, Company 0, 110th Infantry, IKHh division, Atoka, Twin.
