Distinguished Conduct Medal 'During the period 25 February to 26-17 September, 1918, he has been constantly employed on Divisional A.R.Ps., and has at all times set a very high standard of initiative and energy in carrying out his duties. At Glisy, a shell fell in a bay full of high explosives, exploding a number of rounds, and scattering the remainder over the road. He immediately ran to the bay and extinguished the fire, afterwards clearing the road to enable a convoy of motor transport to pass, though the enemy shelling still continued.'
