On the morning of March 8.
1929, while General Moseley was
in command of the First Cavalry
Division at Fort Bliss, an interest

revolutionary forces and the Mexi-
can federal troops were lined up
against each other near the in
ternational bridge connecting Ell
Paso. Texas, and Juafez. Mexico.
The federal forces were on the
south bank of the Rio Grande. 1t
was apparent that any serious
fighting would endanger American
life and result in delicate inter-
national situation. General Nose.
ley crossed the international
bridge, conferred while under
heavy fire with the commander of
the federal forces, passed through
the field of fire to confer with the
leaders of the revolutionary forces
and stopped the action that was
endangefing American life and
that threatened to bring on seri-
Gus international complications.
For this act he was awarded the
Oak Leaf Cluster which represents
the award of the Distinguished
