!Gallantry in Action in Korea Wins Decorations for Two D. C. Area Officers
Two 27th Infantry officers from
Washington and nearby Maryland
■ have been decorated for gallantry
1 in action against the Reds in
j Korea, the Defense Department
■ announced late yesterday.
Lt. Col. George Dechow, for
■ merly of 2745 Woodley place N.W.,
i won the First Oak Leaf Cluster
to the Silver Star in an engage
ment near Haman on the night
1 of December 8-9, while a Silver
Star award went to Capt. Rob
ert D. Glaser at Silver Spring for
his conduct during an attack near
Pongdong on November 29. Capt.
Glaser’s wife and young son live
at 745 North Hampton drive, Sil
ver Spring.
The outer defenses of Col. De
chow’s battalion were penetrated
by an enemy attack, the citation
read, and artillery fire called for
by the colonel failed to halt the
advance.
Col. Dechow then “risked in
tense fire and moved- through the
position to co-ordinate the move
ment and fire of his men,” the
report said. “'Inspiring his men
to maximum effort, he conducted
a spirited defense that forced the
enemy to withdraw.”
Col. Dechow’s mother, Mrs.
Linda M. Dechow, lives at the
Woodley place address. He and
his family resided there during
three years of duty in Washing
ton before he was assigned to a
post in Japan two years ago. The
colonel’s wife and two children1
are now in Japan.
Capt. Glaser advanoed through
enemy fire to personally check
the company positions after com
munication lines were disrupted
in an attack.
“After assuring himself that
everything was under control,’’
the citation said, “he returned
to the command post and found it
overrun by hostile forces. Firing
his weapon with deadly accuracy,
he stormed into the hostile ranks,
so demoralizing the enemy that
they dropped their arms and fled.”
Capt. Glaser, who ^as wounded
in action in Europe during World
War II, Is now in a hospital in
Osaka, Japan, his wife said. Re
cently she received a letter from
him, explaining he had suffered
a sprained back.
Lourenco Marques, Mozambi
3ue, reports entertaining 23,500
tourists from South Africa and
the Rhodesias last year.
Tourist Pubilicity Cut
Although the tourist trade is
Southern Rhodesia’s fourth source
of income ($8,500,000 in 1950)
government grants to the Publicity
Association have been cut.
