Captain Lewis Cunningham Broadus (1877–1961) was a Buffalo Soldier born in Henrico County, Virginia, who served his country with distinction in the 25th Infantry Regiment and the 92nd Division of the United States Army. He served from 1897 to 1923, and was a veteran of the Indian Wars, Spanish–American War, Philippine–American War, Border War, and World War I. He began his military career as a Private in Company D, 25th Infantry Regiment. Over the course of the many military campaigns he participated in, Lewis rose through the ranks, reaching the highest enlisted rank of his regiment, Sergeant Major. With the outbreak of World War I, and after many petitions and commendations, he attend officer training and was successfully commissioned as a Captain in 1917. Lewis was awarded a Certificate of Merit for "coolness, presence of mind, and bravery in saving lives of others at Fort Niobrara," by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1906. After the Certificate of Merit Medal was declared obsolete in 1918, his medal was first exchanged for the newly established Distinguished Service Medal, and, after a change in award regulations by Congress in 1934, converted into the Distinguished Service Cross.
