George Rose (Medal of Honor)
George Harry Rose (February 28, 1880 – December 7, 1932) was a member of the United States Navy and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions during the China Relief Expedition.
==Biography==
Rose enlisted in the Navy from his birth state of Connecticut and served on the cruiser as a Seaman. During the China Relief Expedition of 1900, ''Newark'', serving as flagship for the Assistant Commander of the Asiatic Station, was brought to the Peking area to protect Americans who were under threat from the Boxer Rebellion. Rose voluntarily took part in land operations there in May and June 1900, distinguishing himself on several occasions, among them carrying dispatches on June 10, helping to fight off an attack on his unit's baggage train on the 13th, engaging in combat from June 20, to June 22, and obtaining medical supplies from an enemy-held village. For his "meritorious conduct" on 13, 20, 21 and June 22, he was awarded the Medal of Honor.
Rose received a commission as an Ensign in the Naval Reserve in 1917. He served in the Third Naval District (New York City region) during World War I and was promoted to Lieutenant (Junior Grade) in mid-1918. On July 15, 1929 he became a Lieutenant Commander in the Merchant Marine Naval Reserve. Rose died at age 52 and is buried at Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington County, Virginia.
