Military Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry at the 41st Battery position near WESTHOEK, east of YPRES. About 8.30 a.m. on the 26th September, 1917, while the 41st Battery was under heavy 8" and 5.9" shell fire, one gun pit was hit, camouflage and an adjacent ammunition dump were set alight and commenced to burn and explode. Regardless of the continued heavy shell fire and imminent danger from our own exploding ammunition, Sergeant CAMPBELL with is Officers and another N.C.O., immediately rushed to the spot and worked with buckets and tins of water until the several fires were extinguished. The gallant and timely action of this N.C.O. not only saved the gun and about one thousand rounds of 18 pr. ammunition, but set a splendid example to all ranks of soldierly conduct and devotion to duty.'
