Commando Kelly Gets Silver Star
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, May 15 (U. P.).—T. Sgt. Charles E. (Commando) Kelly, Pittsburgh, first enlisted man to receive the congressional medal of honor in Italy, has been awarded the silver star for additional feats of gallantry, it was announced yesterday. The citation was for his exploits in connection with the 36th division's abortive attempt to cross the Rapido river in a drive toward Cassino coincident with the Anzio landings. When casualties reduced the officers, Kelly first took over command of a platoon and then a full company and constantly exposed himself to enemy fire while leading the unit forward and locating strategic outpost positions. Weight of German fire eventually forced his unit back across the Rapido with heavy casualties, ending the engagement, Kelly received the congressional medal of honor for his feats near Altavilla in the Salerno area last Sept. 13.
