Distinguished Conduct Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. In an advance, when the right flank was held up by machine gun fire, this warrant officer organized a small party of men outflanking the post, and killing or capturing the garrison, he then mopped up two dug outs, accounting for two officers, and forty men. He set a splendid example throughout.'
