Military Medal 'Operations: British Front near Bapaume ? 24th/25th August 1918. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. On the 24th and 25th August 1918, when his
Company had suffered severe casualties, Private Templeton went out many times under fire of all descriptions, attending to the wounded and dragging them to safety, his action undoubtedly saved many lives. His wonderful disregard for his personal safety set an inspiring example to all.'
