Distinguished Conduct Medal 'Through the final operations he showed marked gallantry and ability to command. At Mont St. Quentin, on 1 September, 1918, he rendered most valuable assistance to his company commander; and at Montbrehain, on 5 October, 1918, after the company officers had been killed and he himself wounded, he reconnoitred forward of the company's position, and personally sighted several new posts, and got the men allotted to them.'
