Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and energy on the night of 28th/29th October, 1918, near Le Quesnoy. When the situation was very obscure he made a complete
reconnaissance of the front, greatly assisting in getting the battalion properly disposed. On 30th October he led a daylight patrol, and succeeded in gaining some very valuable information about positions of enemy machine gun posts. Again, on 4th November, though slightly wounded, he made another daring reconnaissance.'
