General Morton Praises Troops.
Lieutenant BarTck enclosed copy
of general order issued by Major
General Charles G.. Morton. comman-
der of the 10Th Division. of which the
115th is unit. This order was IS.
sued on November ! and praises all

order follows:
General Orders No. SO.
Headquarters goth Division. American
Expeditionary Forces. Nov. 1, 1918.
Now that its part in the action
north of Verdun Is finished, the Di-
vision Commander wishes to take
occasion to express his deep appre-
citation of the skill endurance, and
courage shown by the officers and
men of the division, including both
staff and line, In most difficult and
prolonged fight.
Everything was opposed to our
success. I'VE had most determined
enemy on our front and one skilled
| by four years of warfare. whereas
this was the first real fight of our
division On most days the weather
was bad and the ground difficult. adj
ded to the fact that the lighting was
largely in the woods, ravines and
dampness. gassing of our troops was
easily accomplished and full advan-
tage OF this fact was taken by the
enemy to whom the use of the gas
was an old story.
What They Did and Saw.
without exception the organiza-
ltions of the division and their com
raarders responded heroically to every
call upon them and at the end of the
Tight we had not only gained our OBJ
Iiectiyes. but we held them and turn
ed them over to our successors. We
advanced come eight kilometers
Through the enemy,s trenches, and
captured over 200 prisoners. Z can
non, about 200 machine guns and q
large quantity of miscellaneous mill
Itary property We had the pleasure
Iof seeing two hostile divisions with
Idrawn from our front, one of which
YVES composed of some Of the best
troops in the German army. On many
occasions captured prisoners stated
that our attack was 20 rap and OUT
fire so effective that they were over
saelmed and had nothing to do bul
to retire or surrender.
in this brief summing up OF the
results Of its first fight the Division
Commando feels that every Officer
end man participating, whether In
planning or In executing should fee
d Just pride in what has been accom-
[c,l,shed. This is but repeatlng the
praise that aas been bestowed upon
the division by both American and
French superior commanders.
