Some of the Exploits of
Sergt. Kenneth Burns Of the
LIST Div. in No Mans Land.

In connection with the triumphant
parade of the soldiers of the LIST
Division Wednesday a story is re-
leased through the War Department
bringing to mind the valor Of those
whose spirit only could be with the
comrades in their march up the
Avenue. The story concerns the ex-
ploits of courageous young Texan.
Sergt. Kenneth c. Burns of the 1st
Division. who fell during an attack
south of Scissors, July Is, 1918.
Sergt. Burns was a young lad.
barely seventeen, but well built and
typically Texan. He had an intrepid
disposition and was filled with a de-
that tasted of tray. When his
regimental duties were slack he
would make long voyages into no
mans land, both by day and night,
and was early recognized as an excel
lent observation scout. He was call
parties. and always came back able
to furnish important information.
On one occasion he was sent with an
other sergeant and a corporal to inves-
tigate the cause of sounds in the enemy
lines, sounds which suggested that a
gas attack was being prepared. His
companions failed to complete the trip
so Burns made the crossing alone and
discovered that the enemy was prepar-
ing pill box strong point. Besides re-
turning with this information. he bore a
watch and other personal belongings of
German officer. along with valuable
maps and sketches. No one exactly
learned how these were secured, but it
seems that Burns got his boche-an off,
Ger.
Another time he made three trips to
no mans land to a demolished German
plane and brought back the body Of the
sWiator. together with the camera equip
ment and a machine gun. Later, during
q trench raid at Montdidier, he cap
tured a whole machine gun crew.
His twelfth citation was written on
the day Of his death at the sector oppo-
site Montdidier. just south of Scissors.
The memory Of his exploits was an in
spiration to the men of his battalion all
through their later work in the front
line trenches
