Sherman, 18th Company, Fifth Regiment of Marines, ' Second Division. , Cornoral Sherman is as eood as' they come. He was wounded in ac tion at Belleau Wood and since he is a marine, he calls the place, "Bois- de-la-Bneade-de-Manne." He was one. of those humed forward m motor trucks to stop the drive on Paris. He went over "the top with a dashing disregardof danger, making deadly use of his rine and bayonet, displaying an astonishing skill at arms under murderous nre.ot tne en emy machine guns. This in spite of being wounded in the leg, thus prov ing himself unbeatable and setting an example to his fellows which they were not slow to follow. Later he was removed to a hospital but rejoined his company in time to participate with continued gallantry in .the ilast drive of the war. , - ; Copyright, 1?1 9.
