Ms. Elsie Shemin Roth and Ms. Ina Bass receive the Medal of Honor from President Obama on behalf of their father, Sgt. William Shemin. He is credited with courageously leaving cover and crossing open space, repeatedly exposing himself to heavy machine-gun and rifle fire, to rescue wounded. After officers and senior noncommissioned officers had become casualties, Shemin took command of the platoon and displayed great initiative under fire until wounded on August 9. Shemin is the first Soldier from the 4th Division to receive the Medal of Honor for actions in WWI. U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Bernardo Fuller |
