CITES TO THE ORDER OF THE ARMY

"Magnificent unit engaged in the Battle of 'Manche'. Particularly distinguished itself by bravery and fighting spirit at the time of attack of Hill 122, July 15, 1944. After having taken by assault this position powerfully fortified, mined and occupied by an enemy of superior numbers, the 134th Infantry Regiment, exploiting its initial success, emerged in St. Lo which it disputed, for a week, with an adversary decided to resist at all costs."

This citation includes the awarding of the Croix de Guerre with Palm.
