 THE MEMORY OF
 CARTER 1. .K0ON
The Late Carter Rooms Memory Is Honored By Award of the
 Distinguished Service Cross.

In a telephone message from Fairbanks this afternoon, the first details of how Carter Koon met his death were made public to his many friends in Nenana. The wire was sent by Senator Dan Sutherland, of Ruby, now in Juneau, and forwarded to the News. Carter Koon, one of the first of Nenana's boys to volunteer for overseas service, en- listed in Co. B., lst Engineers, and left Nenana shortly after the war broke out.
 According to the officer in charge of Rooms company, he was killed in action at Soissons on July 20, 1918, after displaying such bravery under fire as would bring to even war hardened troopers feeling of intense admiration. From the description it appears that under the heaviest of shell fire before Soissons, Rooms company, as a unit of the division, was forced to fall back to more sheltered position, but not before many of the boys had fallen. It was in rescuing these that Carter Koon met his death A call was made for vol unteers to return under the with ering fire and bring in the wounded. Koon volunteered and had made two trips, each time bringing in on his back one of his comrades. It was on the third trip that he fell mortally wounded. He died shortly after being taken to the rear and while his wound was being dressed. He was buried with military honors on the battlefield
 For this signal bravery, the Dis tinguished Service Cross was award ed to Carter and has since been sent to his brother, John J. Koon, Fredonia, Ky.
