Military Medal 'During the operations against MONTBREHAIN, east of PERONNE, on the 5th October, 1918, this soldier displayed great courage and daring. He was the first to volunteer for any enterprise of a dangerous character. on arrival at the objective he supervised the digging in of his section. Assistance being required urgently Private GOULLET set out to bring aid, and moved over open country, under close machine gun fire. He delivered an important message to his Company Commander, and, whilst returning, gathered a party together to attend to the wounded. Having seen that all the casualties in his vicinity had been disposed of, he again set out to obtain liaison with the flanks. By his daring he thus established communication between all parts of his Company, and was able to deliver messages of extreme importance. At all times he was subject to heavy enemy fire of all descriptions.'
