REMARKABLE VALOR OF
AMERICAN SOLDIERS
Universal News Service)

Paris, Sept. 3.-After four days and
nights spent in an observation post
in the region Of Juyigny, Sergeant
Ira Croshaw, Of Grand Rapids, Mich,
returned today to American head
quarters. after having witnessed viz
tually all of the American daylight
action since the attack on the plateau
began last Wednesday morning.
The observation post built by the
Germans commands a view Of the
country for miles around II is a shell
proof tower Of concrete and steel rails
with a roof six feet thick and the sides
four feet n addition to a telephone
Sergeant CroshaH had seven runners.
The tower exit faced the German lines
and the enemy machine gunners
opened fire every time any individual
was sighted but not one of the run
ners were lost.
The first day the American runners
crawled back and forth into the tow
er entrance over the body of dead
German, the Americans finally bury
ing it beneath the entrance.
Sergeant Croshaw watched the Am
orleans cross veritable sea of bar
bed wire network on Sunday after
noon, while the Americans were east
ward bound. He saw his cOuntTymen
Withstand the strain of shells
and machine gun fire pouring
upon the plateau. Time and time
again advancing infantrymen were
compelled to stop and cut or break
down wire entanglements.
On the east side of the Bethune-
Scissors road, the Americans took
few prisoners on Sunday. Several of
the prisoners said that the latest
German orders intended 10 prevent
the Germans in the front line from
knowing the identity of the units on
either side Of them. The orders in
structed the soldiers not to talk
about other German organizations in
the line and cautioned them not TO
give the names OF the units even, il
they happened to know them in the
event Of being taken prisoner.
