Military Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in the field east of Le Quesnoy on the 4th November 1918. During the operations on this date the above man was most conspicuous for good work and tireless energy. His company was working up the course of a river and he repeatedly pushed forward to rush the numerous hostile posts which required prompt attention after the barrage had passed over them. Throughout the action he was tireless in his efforts to locate the enemy and was an inspiration to the men of his section.'
