Military Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. During the operations in the vicinity of BRAY from 22nd August, 1918 to 26th August, 1918, this N.C.O. was in charge of signals at the Battalion Command Post. Through his untiring energy and tenacity of purpose, signal communication was maintained throughout the whole of these operations. He frequently left a place of safety during heavy enemy shelling and personally repaired the lines thus setting a fine example to his linesmen. His gallant work proved to be, on more than one occasion, of vital importance to his Battalion.'
