Military Medal 'Private SIEBERT when in charge of a squad of stretcher bearers at a relay post on 5th April, 1918 North of Buire rendered invaluable service in directing the work of squads at the post in evacuating wounded. By his stirring example and untiring devotion to duty, he stimulated the efforts of the bearers for a period of 24 hours under constant and heavy shell and machine gun fire, when on the verge of exhaustion. He succeeded in maintaining the rapid evacuation of wounded who would have been exposed to great danger by the least delay.'
