But the latter, without ceasing for an instant his firing and without even dropping his pipe from his mouth, belleved back: "Leave me alone. I'm an expert marksman and I want to do something for my country while I have such a fine chance to do it." From the very first instant of his appearance on the summit of the ridge, the rifle fire of the entire regiment of Germans was centered on him. Yet for a full five minutes he continued tranquilly to fire with sure aim into their ranks before he finally fell riddled with bullets, the stock of his rifle shattered into splinters and his pipe knocked from his mouth as he rolled over on the ground. A moment afterward, the Seventy-ninth leaped again to the assault and drove the Germans down the ridge. That night the Seventy-ninth buried their hero on the summit of the ridge where he had fallen. There was nothing about his person to indicate his identity. His deed of heroism was signaled to the ministry of war. The ministry of war did everything in its power to identify the soldier, but without results. Unwilling that the sacrifice should go unrecorded, the citation was granted in the name of "An Unknown Soldier."
