IS AWARDED { | | WITH THE 32ND INFANTRY DI- | VISION IN NORTHERN LUZON, P. I.—The Bronze Star Medal has been awarded to Sergeant Kenneth R.| {Allen of Juneau, Alaska, for merit-| orious achievement against the en-|aj emy during military operations in| New Guinea and the Jhilippine] | Islands. | Allen has conspiciously displayed | outstanding abilities as an assistant | |squad leader on numerous occas-| ions. His courage and coolness un-| der fire has constantly served as axfl |inspiration to his men. When the veteran 32d (red Arrow) Infantry Division was pushing ahead | linto the Ormee Corridor on Leyte! |Island, they were suddenly met by a | withering hail of machine gun bul- |lets. Allen’s company was halted ! |by the blinding fire coming from the | ]thlck underbrush only 15 yards away. Realizing that the attack would| |beg down unless the men continued |to move forward, Allen moved from | {man to man encouraging them and | {point out positions that had to be itaken. Constantly exposed to the |Jap fire, he was finally hit. The citation reads in part . As a result of \his aggressiveness and |courage under fire, his men soon ‘m‘:rwhslmed the enemy position. His ! exemplary conduct and devotion to |duty reflect great credit upon him ‘and upon the Armed Forces. g Since the Leyte action Allen has returned to the United States. Vet- eran of two campaigns, he hold the {Combat Infantryman Badge, the Asi- atic-Pacific Ribbon and tke Philip- i pine Liberation Medal. His father, Mr. Glenn A. Allen, Allen is new in Juneau on a sixty day furlough. - WEATHER REPORT (U. S. WEATHER BUREAU) Temperatures for 2 Ending 7:30 0’Clock This Morning o o o In Juneau—Maximum, C3; minimum, 51.
