From a contemporary press report:
  Quinton T. "Bill" Barlow, 75,  a retired Marine Corps sergeant major who was later chief of security at the World Bank, died
  of cancer April 6, 1998 at home in Vienna, Virginia.

  Sergeant Major Barlow served in  World War II, the Korean War and the war in Vietnam.  He was awarded the Navy Cross,
  his service's highest award for valor after the Medal of Honor,  for his role in rallying his men to repel an attack by numeri- 
  cally overwhelming enemy forces near Panmunjom in Korea on April 16, 1952.

  According to the citation accompanying the award, then-Technical Sergeant Barlow "organized a defensive perimeter and,
  despite  intense enemy  mortar and  small-arms fire,  moved from position to position,  shouting words of encouragement
  and aiding the wounded.   With  the  hostile  forces  formed for the  final  assault,  he  led  the  fight  to repel the attackers, 
  succeeding in dispersing the enemy within five yards of the defensive ridge."

  Sergeant Major Barlow was born in North Carolina. He served 26 years in the Marine Corps, retiring in 1970.

  On his military retirement, he settled in this area and joined the World Bank.  He retired there as chief of security in 1984.

  He was a member of  St. Mary's Catholic Church in Washington.   His avocations included gardening and working his farm
  in North Carolina.

  Survivors include his wife, Marie Barlow; six children, Daniel Barlow of Ohio, Maureen Finley of California, Eileen Akers of
  Nashville and Dominic Barlow,  Doreen Tisone and Celine Zapolski, all of Fairfax; 18 grandchildren;  and five  great grand-
  children.
