Military Medal 'Was in charge of Regimental and Company Stretcher bearers during operations east of VILLERS BRETONNEUX on 13th to 18th May, 1918, and did particularly gallant work on night 14th/15th May, 1918. Then and on other occasions he carefully reconnoitred all available routes for stretcher bearers, and established a relay post at a convenient spot. The fact that evacuations to the R.A.P. were dealt with expeditiously throughout the tour is attributable to WATT's careful management, and on more than one occasion he himself made one of a bearers squad carrying through heavy shell fire.'
