Major General Leonard Wood M.D. '84 was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal for exceptionally meritorious service during the war by the War Department yesterday. The decoration was based on General Wood's service as a department, division and camp commander during the war. The citation says: "He has displayed qualities of leadership and professional attainments of a high order in the administration and training of his various commands, and has furthered in every way during the war the system of officers' training schools."
It has been stated by a military expert that the 89th division, trained at Camp Funston by General Wood, made the best record of any national army division in France.
