Military Cross 'At Mont St. Quentin, during the attack on 1st September 1918, all the officers of his company became casualties, and, assuming the command, he led it towards the objective, in the face of heavy machine gun fire. Although the company was reduced by severe opposition to seventeen men, he led them to the final objective, capturing five machine gun crews. Throughout his splendid courage and coolness were powerful incentives to all ranks with him.'
