Malone came to the Fifth Division just after it had completed its training in the quiet sectors of the Vosges. With that same vigor and forceful ability that had characterized his command of the Twenty-third Infantry of the Second Division in its operations in the summer of 1918, General Malone led the Tenth Infantry Brigade through the St. Mihiel Offensive, the taking of Bois des Rappes, the crossing of the Meuse, the drive across the heights to the Loison River and during the Army of Occupation.[2] Early yearsMalone was born at Middletown, New York, May 8, 1872.

During the Santiago Campaign in 1898, Lieutenant Malone served as a staff officer in General Wikof's brigade of General Kent's Division. From 1899 to 1901, he served as Staff Officer and in command of troops in the Philippines. He was promoted to rank of Captain in 1901, and from 1901 to 1905 was instructor in the Department of Chemistry at West Point.
