Consider his divisional citation: For bravery in leading his1 latoon through a smoke screen on the morning of September 29th,1918, in vicinity of Bony, France, while under terrific machine gunfire. Sergeant Eells was killed before reaching his objective. Finally, on December 18, 1919, came the founding of an Auxiliary to the Frank Mead Eells Post.
