Mentioned in Despatches

'This man is a Company Runner and has done extraordinarily good work both in the Messines and Warneton operations in June 1917. During the latter, communications were extremely difficult and the Runners were taxed to the utmost. His wonderful stamina and devotion to duty was responsible for the smart delivery of many important despatches under heavy fire.'
