The Order of Saint Maurice
THE ORDER OF SAINT MAURICE® has six levels. A nominee for the Order of Saint Maurice must have served the Infantry community with distinction; must have demonstrated a significant contribution in support of the Infantry; and must represent the highest standards of integrity, moral character, professional competence, and dedication to duty. The same medallion is used for each level, with an attachment that identifies the level.
MAJ (Ret.) Paul E. Hujer. Legionnaire.
Major Potter’s loyalty, outstanding performance in every situation, combat experience, resilience, and love of country, is a true inspiration to the next generation of Warriors that fill our ranks. In every corner of his military career, he gave over 100% of his time and energy to accomplish the mission and never shirked a task. As an expert planner and tactician, he was a role model to all the leaders above and below, that served with him.
Throughout his career, Major Potter displayed profound humbleness and strength of character. He personified every trait of a tough Warrior and never forgot the long demanding history of the American Infantryman.
