The Cohens Did It

Numerous Jewish
Heroes Recorded
Among the Cohens

LONDON (JTA)—under the
heading "Another Cohen Does it,"
the London papers this week
featured the announcement that
Capt. Henry G. Cohen, a Mel-
bourne-born Jew who resides in.
London, has been awarded the
George Medal • for gallantry. in
North Africa.

The official citation states that
Capt. Cohen,. who is attached to
the Pioneer Corps, showed "con-
stant disregard for personal
danger." The reference in the
newspapers to "another Cohen"
was occasioned by the fact that
last weekend the press was fill-
ed with the story of Sgt. Sidney
Cohen, who inadvertently secur-
ed the surrender of the Italian
island of Lampedusa when his
patrol plane was forced to land
there when it ran out of gas.
(From American headquarters
in North Africa this week came
the . report of still another Cohen
being cited for heroism. This one
is Capt. Moses Cohen, a New
York City physician, who ..has
been awarded the Silver Star for
a daring. nine mile dash into
enemy territory to secure medical
supplies.)
