Military Medal 'During the operations east of YPRES on 20/23rd September 1917, this man acted as runner. He showed no hesitation in running with messages to Battalion Headquarters and to the flanks, being always willing and ready to go anywhere regardless of the shelling and machine gun fire. He was extremely hard worked and had practically no sleep. His work was very valuable as runners were being badly knocked about and telephone communication could not be relied upon.'
