nation’s highest honor in Italy and the third in the Mediterranean theater, took over a rifle platoon, although wounded, personally killed five Germans, wiped out two machine gun nests and finally stormed a German house where he single handedly captured a German mortar. The Indian hero was decorated before nine massed companies in a replacement center where he is awaiting transportation home on a rotation leave.

Wins Leadership

Childres was a first sergeant in | the 45th division in Sicily when he took over a rifle patrol in an emergency and led it to a victory for which he received a battle commission Aug. 22 and was given permanent leadership of the pla-

On Sept. 22 he was leading the patrol ‘when he stepped into a hole and injured his foot. He returned to the post for first aid and was told the foot might be fractured. During examination he heard that this battalion was pinned down in a cornfield by heavy German machine gun and mortar fire.

Advances. Under. Fire

He returned to the battle scene against medical advice, rounded up eight men of his unit and led them up a hill left of the battalion to a rock wall behind which enemy machine guns were concealed. He moved along the edge of the field under mortar and artillery fire. Then he was fired on by two German riflemen at close range. He killed them both.

Then he moved behind an enemy machine gun nest and killed its two {occupants, After that he made his | way to a spot near a second nest ‘and, using rocks to simulate gren{ades, forced the two occupants to stand. He killed one and one of his men got the other.

Nazi Mortar Captured

Childres continued his advance alone until he arrived at a house where he captured a German mortar. “His indomitable courage and coolness under deadly fire of a determined enemy enabled his battalion to continue its advance,” the citation read. Childres wore a helmet and an open-necked G. I. shirt as Devers presenting him the medal, said: “You did a swell job. I wish to congratulate you.” Asked later about his accomplishment, Childres merely explained:
