'At 2.30 p.m. on 24th September [1917] he was stretcher bearer attached to a party constructing roads between BELLEWAARDE RIDGE and WESTHOEK. Enemy shelled the section intensely for a time and there was only shell hole cover. Pte Cons [?] being wounded, Pte Fraser deliberately applied field dressings and then took the wounded man to the Dressing Station. Pte Fraser's cool conduct had an excellent effect on the remainder of the men. The working parties have been more or less shelled every day, and on each occasion this man's excellent behaviour showed a good example to the other men.'

Pte Fraser was with his officer at rear of the party & volunteered to get assistance and bring the man in. Shelling was heavy at the time, but Fraser persisted in his attempts, obtained help and a stretcher, to get the man to Dressing Station though he himself got wounded in the back.'
