THOMAS o. NEIBOUR, Private, Company N, 167th
 infantry.

Private Neibour, whose home is at Sugar City, Idaho. was dec orated for conspicuous gallantry in action near Landres-et-St. Georges. France, October 16. 1918. On the afternoon of Oc- tober 16. when the Cote de Cha tillen had just been gained after bitter fighting, and the summit of that strong bulwark in the krienhilde Stellung was being organized, Private Neibour was sent out on patrol with his au- tornadc rife squad to enflade enemy machine gun nests. As Private Neibour gained the ridge he set up his automatic rife and was directly thereafter wounded in both legs by fire from hos tile machine gun on his flank. The advance wave of the enemy troops counter-attacking had about gained the ridge and al- though practically cut off and
 surrounded, the remainder of his detachment being killed or wounded, this gallant soldier kept his automatic rife in op
 eration to such effect that by his own efforts and by fire from
 the skirInish line of his com pany at least 100 yards in his
 rear, the attack was checked.
 The enemy wave being halted and
 lying prone, four of the enemy
 attacked Private Neibour at close quarters. These he killed. He then moved along among the enemy lying on the ground about
 him, in the midst of the fire from his own lines, and by his coolness and ganantry captured eleven prisoners at tine point of his pistol and. although pain fully wounded. brought them back to our lines. The counter attack in full force was arrest ed. to a large extent, by the single efforts of this soldier. whose heroic exploits took place against the skyline in full view of his entire battalion.
