Distinguished Service Order 'Fo conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in charge of the bearer division near Bellicourt from 29th September to 2nd October, 1918. During the whole of this period he rendered valuable service, and by his coolness and initiative surmounted all difficulties under most trying conditions. He not only worked the evacuation of the wounded from rear aid posts of his own brigade, but he personally re-organized the evacuation from other brigades under very heavy shell and machine gun fire.'
