Hi, all,
This is from "Heroes All", a compendium of names ... decorated for
exceptional heroism... Harry R. Stringer, Ed., 1919:
"CARR, Warner W., Major. 4th infantry. For extraordinary heroism in action
near Vaux, France, June 30, 1918. Preparatory to an attack upon Vaux, and
in broad daylight he voluntarily crawled out into No Man's land to a point
close to the enemy lines, remaining there several hours under fire from
machine guns and snipers, while he made sketches of the town and its
defenses. The info he obtained was of the utmost importance in planning
the attack which was made the following day with marked success. Home
address: Mrs. Martha Belle Carr, mother, Chalmers, Ind."
