Source: 'Commonwealth Gazette' No. 62 Date: Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in operations when he was responsible for the moving of bombs to a captured objective. His skilful handling of the carrying parties, and his courage and untiring energy in leading them forward through the hostile artillery and machine gun fire, enabled new dumps to be established, and thus greatly helped with the consolidation of the new position. Throughout the operations his coolness and splendid example enabled the supply of material to the troops in the forward positions to be kept up.'
