Medal
of Honor - June
6, 1918 - Gunnery Sergeant CHARLES F. HOFFMAN
USMC, near Chateau-Thierry,
49th Company, 5th Regiment, 2nd Div (Name
changed to ERNEST August Janson) Entered
service at: Brooklyn, N.Y. Born. 17 August
1878, New York, N.Y. G.O. No.: 34, W.D., 1919.
(Also received Army Medal of Honor. )
Citation: Immediately after the company to
which he belonged had reached its objective on
Hill 142, several hostile counterattacks were
launched against the line before the new
position had been consolidated. G/Sgt. Hoffman
(right) was attempting to organize a
position on the north slope of the hill when
he saw 12 of the enemy, armed with 5 light
machine guns, crawling toward his group.
Giving the alarm, he rushed the hostile
detachment, bayoneted the 2 leaders, and
forced the others to flee, abandoning their

which they could have swept the hill with

Medal
of Honor - June
6, 1918 - Gunnery Sergeant ERNEST AUGUST
JANSON USMC, near Chateau-Thierry. Rank and
organization:, U.S. Marine Corps, 49th
Company. (Served under name of Charles F.
Hoffman) Born: 17 August 1878, New York, N.Y.
Accredited to: New York. (Also received
Army Medal of Honor.) Citation: For
conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above
and beyond the call of duty in action with the
enemy near Chateau-Thierry, France, June 6,
1918. Immediately after the company to which
G/Sgt. Janson belonged, had reached its
objective on Hill 142, several hostile
counterattacks were launched against the line
before the new position had been consolidated.
G/Sgt. Janson was attempting to organize a
position on the north slope of the hill when
he saw 12 of the enemy, armed with 5 light
machine guns, crawling toward his group.
Giving the alarm, he rushed the hostile
detachment, bayoneted the 2 leaders, and
forced the others to flee, abandoning their
guns. His quick action, initiative and courage
drove the enemy from a position from which
they could have swept the hill with machine
gun fire and forced the withdrawal of our
troops.

of Honor (posthumous) - June
6, 1918 - Lieutenant, Junior Grade, (Dental
Corps) WEEDON E. OSBORNE USN, Belleau Wood.
Born: 13 November 1892, Chicago, Ill.
Appointed from: Illinois. Citation: For
extraordinary heroism while attached to the

In the hottest of the fighting when the
Marines made their famous advance on Bouresche
at the southern edge of Belleau Wood, Lt

the work of rescuing the wounded. Extremely
courageous in the performance of this perilous
task, he was killed while carrying a wounded
officer to a place of safety.

CLYDE H, Private, killed in action
|
Clyde
Slider (left, click both images to enlarge) is one
of the many Marine casualties whose bodies were
returned to the United States, but whose State
burial lists have not been accessed. In April
2015, his grand nephew Vernon Murray emailed:
"I was reading the list of those killed in action
at the Battle of Belleau Woods, and noticed that
my great uncle, Clyde H. Slider was missing from
the list. I don't want his sacrifice to be
forgotten. If you could add his name to the list
of marines killed on June 18, 1918 I would surely
appreciate it. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS
VERY IMPORTANT PERSON IN MY LIFE. His sister,
Wealtha B. Slider (Murray) was my Paternal
Grandmother
"The grave stone reads: CLYDE H. SON OF T. E.&
M. A. SLIDER, BORN MAR 7, 1897, KILLED IN ACTION
IN FRANCE JUNE 18, 1918, U. S. MARINES, 23RD CO, 5
REG, 6 MACH-GUN BATTALION."
I have quoted Vernon's email in detail as it is
still so easy to forget those we have lost. Gordon

Medal
of Honor
- July 19, 1918 - Lieutenant (Medical Corps)
JOEL THOMPSON BOONE USN, Vierzy. Entered
service at: St. CLAIR, Pa. Born: 2 August
1889, St. Clair, Pa. Citation: For
extraordinary heroism, conspicuous gallantry,
and intrepidity while serving with the 6th
Regiment, U.S. Marines, in actual conflict
with the enemy. With absolute disregard for
personal safety, ever conscious and mindful of
the suffering fallen, Surg. Boone (right)
leaving
the shelter of a ravine, went forward onto the
open field where there was no protection and
despite the extreme enemy fire of all calibers,
through a heavy mist
of gas, applied dressings and first aid to
wounded Marines. This occurred southeast of
Vierzy, near the cemetery, and on the road
south from that town. When the dressings and
supplies had been exhausted, he went through a
heavy barrage of large-caliber shells, both
high explosive and gas, to replenish these
supplies, returning quickly with a sidecar
load, and administered them in saving the
lives of the wounded. A second trip, under the
same conditions and for the same purpose, was
made by Surg. Boone later that day.

Medal
of Honor - July
19 and October 5, 1918 - Pharmacist's Mate
First Class JOHN HENRY BALCH USN, Vierzy and
Somme-Py. Entered
service at: Kansas City, Mo. Born: 2 January
1896, Edgerton, Kans. Citation: For gallantry
and intrepidity at the risk of his life above
and beyond the call of duty, with the 6th
Regiment, 2nd U.S. Marines, in action at
Vierzy, on July 19, 1918. Balch unhesitatingly
and fearlessly exposed himself to terrific
machine gun and high-explosive fire to succor
the wounded as they fell in the attack,
leaving his dressing station voluntarily and
keeping up the work all day and late into the
night unceasingly for 16 hours. Also in the
action at Somme-Py on October 5, 1918, he
exhibited exceptional bravery in establishing
an advanced dressing station under heavy
shellfire.

Medal
of Honor -
8 and 14 October , 1918 - Second Lieutenant
RALPH TALBOT USMC, aircraft pilot.
Born: 6 January 1897, South Weymouth, Mass.
Appointed from: Connecticut. Citation: For
exceptionally meritorious service and
extraordinary heroism while attached to
Squadron C, 1st Marine Aviation Force, in
France. 2d Lt. Talbot (right)
participated in numerous air raids into enemy
territory. On 8 October , 1918, while on such
a raid, he was attacked by 9 enemy scouts, and
in the fight that followed shot down an enemy
plane. Also, on 14 October , 1918, while on a
raid over Pittham, Belgium, 2d Lt.
Talbot and another plane became detached from
the formation on account of motor trouble and
were attacked by 12 enemy scouts. During the
severe fight that followed, his plane shot
down 1 of the enemy scouts. His observer was
shot through the elbow and his gun jammed. 2d
Lt. Talbot maneuvered to gain time for his
observer to clear the jam with one hand, and
then returned to the fight. The observer
fought until shot twice, once in the stomach
and once in the hip and then collapsed, 2d Lt.
Talbot attacked the nearest enemy scout with
his front guns and shot him down. With his
observer unconscious and his motor failing, he
dived to escape the balance of the enemy and
crossed the German trenches at an altitude of
50 feet, landing at the nearest hospital to
leave his observer, and then returning to his
aerodrome.

Medal
of Honor -
October 8
and 14, 1918 - Gunnery Sergeant ROBERT GUY
ROBINSON USMC, aircraft observer,
1st Marine Aviation Force Place and date:
Pittham, Belgium, October 14, 1918. Entered
service at: Chicago, Ill. Born: 30 April 1896,
New York, N.Y. Citation: For extraordinary
heroism as observer in the 1st Marine Aviation
Force at the front in France. In company with
planes from Squadron 218, Royal Air Force,
conducting an air raid on October 8, 1918,
G/Sgt. Robinson's plane was attacked by 9
enemy scouts. In the fight which followed, he
shot down 1 of the enemy planes. In a later
air raid over Pittham, Belgium, on
October 14, 1918, his plane and 1 other became
separated from their formation on account of
motor trouble and were attacked by 12 enemy
scouts. Acting with conspicuous gallantry and
intrepidity in the fight which ensued, G/Sgt.
Robinson (right), after shooting down
1 of the enemy planes, was struck by a bullet
which carried away most of his elbow. At the
same time his gun jammed. While his pilot
maneuvered for position, he cleared the jam
with one hand and returned to the fight.
Although his left arm was useless, he fought
off the enemy scouts until he collapsed after
receiving 2 more bullet wounds, one in the
stomach and one in the thigh.
