Medals |
Meritorious Service Medal 'Recommended for most steady, conscientious and valuable work as Sergeant Clerk during period from 25th February 1918, to night of 16th/17th September, 1918. This N.C.O.s work has always been of the highest standard of excellence, and his routine work of furnishing returns and reports and his clerical work generally have been singularly free from errors and inaccuracies thereby conducing to the smooth running of the unit. Within the last three months he has been promoted to the position of senior clerk in the Ambulance, during which time his loyalty, discretion in confidential matters and devotion to his work have caused me to single him out for my strong recommendation.'
