WASHINGTON, Sept. Answer
ing the mail orders:
B. Deb, Sitka, Alaska-Contrary
to popular misconception, the Or
der of the Purple Heart is not
given every man wounded in action.
BY order of President Hoover
the citation was revived on the
occasion of the George Washing
ton Bicentennial celebration, Feb
%, 1888, and the words of the ORR
ginal commander-in- chief, in Gre
ating the order, were used: to
persons in the United States Army
who perform any singular meri-
tous act extraordinary fidelity OF
essential service"
The misconception undoubtedly
arises because the order specified
that citations prior to Feb. %, 1882
should be for members of the
AEF. who had received the meri-
tous service citation certificate, OF
who had been wounded in action
under conditions which permitted
them to wear the wound chevron.
Since the WACs are now mem
bers of the u. S. Army. there is
nothing in the order to prevent
them getting the citation.
Incidentally, the citation was
created at the instigation of q
German. General Washington es-
tablished it IN 1882 on the recon-
mendation of Baron Won Steuben.
