    Advocates for Harvard ROTC . Telephone: (978) 443-9532 11 Munnings Drive Email: [email protected] Sudbury, Mass. 01776 16 May 2017 From: Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: All other military veterans among Harvard alumni (H-1894 to H-1926) Harvard graduates have a long proud history of serving as warriors in the United States military. Based on hard data from the Harvard Alumni Association, 11,319 Harvard alumni were on active duty during WWI. The purpose of developing the subject is to reinforce the general awareness that freedom is not free. Harvard undergraduates in particular as well as others should be aware and appreciate that many Harvard alumni before them paid a price in time, blood and restricted earning for our national security and liberty. Such military veterans at one point of their life wrote a blank check made payable to the USA for an amount up to and including their own life. All gave some and some gave all. If you have a Harvard alumnus relative from the above classes that is a military veteran, please send your military focused biographic write up and photo (if available) to Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) at the above e-mail address. Please use a similar format as in the below entries. 1. HARVARD COLLEGE by CLASS 1894 Private Charles Francis Malley Royal Canadian Army (42nd Highlanders, 76th Canadian Infantry) [Died on active duty] Charles was born in Milton (MA) in 1872 to parents who had both emigrated from Ireland. He prepared at Boston Latin for Harvard where he completed 4 years of required course work in just 3 years when he graduated magna cum laude and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.

    Advocates for Harvard ROTC . Telephone: (978) 443-9532 11 Munnings Drive Email: [email protected] Sudbury, MA 01776 23 march 2018 From: Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: World War I - Harvard alumni veterans Medal of Honor Legion d’Honneur Distinguished Service Order Distinguished Service Cross Navy Cross The President, in the name of Congress, awards the Medal of Honor to the individual who, while as an active member of the US Armed Forces distinguishes himself or herself conspicuously, at the risk of his or her life above and beyond the call of duty, by courage and intrepidity. The act or acts of heroism must have required a risk of life and the individual have displayed personal bravery or self-sacrifice so extraordinary as to set the individual apart from his or her comrades. The 2nd highest US military decorations for valor have a different name and date of origination by service. For the US Army, this award is called the Distinguished Service Cross and was established by the US congress in 1918. The equivalent award for the Navy and US Marine Corps is the Navy Cross, which was first awarded in 1917 and formally approved by the US congress in 1931 (note: the Navy Cross may also be awarded to deserving US Coast Guard personnel during a formal war when the USCG is operating as part of the USN). The Air Force Cross was established by the US congress in 1960 (note: previously deserving personnel in the US Army Aero Squadrons of the Signal Corps (WW I), US Army Air Corps (1920’s to 1947) or US Air Force (1947 to 1960) were awarded the Distinguished Service Cross).

All eager for the mightier fray, They sped them to the clashing strife — To fight the fight, to heal the hurt. To sail the chartless tracts of air. Eyes forward, head and heart alert.

And thus they wage, with euery nerve. The great day's work — nor that alone, But, ^neath what flag soever they serve, Brighten the colors of their own. PREFATORY AT the outbreak of the European war, during the season of summer travel in 19 14, many Harvard men were in Europe. Not a few of them were attached to the United States embassies and legations in the various capitals. The business of these offices immediately became pressing in the extreme. The labors of those officially connected with them were shared at once by volunteers — the first of the Harvard fellowship to offer a helping hand where it was needed in the sudden disorganiza- tion of an orderly world. The call to the colors of the various warring nations quickly drew into the conflict those who owed allegiance to one or another flag.
