In the big offensive at Chateau Thierry, while advancing through a wood, the platoon of which Private Rison was a member, was held up by heavy machine gun fire, yet he never hesitated. He charged forward through the deadly fire and was hit by machine gun bullets. His work during the Champagne Battle will never be forgotten. His numerous deeds of heroism and courage were a shining example to all.
