Military Medal 'During the operations of the 1st New Zealand Infantry Brigade 16/18th and 24/28th September this NCO worked continually under very heavy artillery fire, maintaining lines. As soon as a line was disconnected no matter how heavy the fire he would go out to repair immediately and it is greatly due to his untiring efforts and extraordinary bravery that communication was maintained from Brigade to
Battalions so that the Brigade was not out of touch once long enough to prove serious.'
