Military Medal 'During the operations east of YPRES on 4th October 1917, he was one of a party engaged on the construction of a Strong Point near MOLENAARELSTHOEK. He performed with excellent skill and judgment the additional duties which fell to his lot as a consequence of the wounding of two senior N.C.O.s. When his section was relieved at night he displayed unselfish gallantry remaining behind to assist in carrying a wounded comrade to the dressing station, this was a laborious and dangerous task, involving a two mile journey over shell swept and muddy ground.'
