Mentioned in Despatches

'This NCO has a splendid record of courageous service and has shown great devotion to duty. His coolness in action has always inspired his men and his leadership and disregard of personal safety has on many occasions been invaluable. He has taken part in the greater number of the engagement fought by this Battalion and has invariably earned for himself the highest possible praise for his work.'
