Military Medal 'Action in front of Belle Vue Spur, west of Passchendaele on October 12th 1917, and following days. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty on October 14th 1917 when the stretcher bearers were beginning to tire this NCO volunteered to go as bearer. By his energy and coolness under machine gun fire and the most trying weather conditions many men were brought in. He was at the same time suffering
from the effects of a wound himself but in spite of it carried on and was a splendid example to the other men.'
