Military Medal 'During the operations east of YPRES on 20th September 1917, this N.C.O. had charge of his platoon. He organised the attack on CARLISLE FARM and captured same. His work after reaching the objective was fine particularly during the enemy's shelling, preparatory to his intended counter-attack. He walked up and down the posts showing absolute disregard of personal danger, getting his men ready to meet the counter-attack.'
