Military Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty during the attack on the 5th April 1918 against our positions opposite DERNANCOURT and ALBERT. This N.C.O. displayed exceptional courage and ability and succeeded in maintaining communications of the Battery throughout the operation. His Corporal and two Signallers were killed at the beginning of the Battle; he then took charge. On several occasions under very heavy fire he went out and repaired lines and it was greatly due to Bombardier WELLARD that communications were maintained to Brigade Headquarters during the most critical periods of the attack.'
