Military Medal 'On the nights of 3rd, 4th, 6th May 1917 Sapper HEALY was engaged on consolidation work in the HINDENBURG Line, and on every occasion showing marked coolness and courageous bearing at the most critical times, steadying his working parties of Infantry by his bearing, and doing, at the same time, at least twice the allotted tasks of sappers or privates, always taking the most dangerous parts and successfully completing them. Almost without exception Sapper HEALY's parties seem to gain his coolness and bearing, thought the circumstances be most trying. Sapper HEALY has never left a task uncompleted. This conduct is typical of him both in and out of the trenches.'
