'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty on 1st October 1918, near Crevecoeur, in command of the left attacking company. Within half an hour of gaining his objective a strong counter attack developed against the battalion on his left, which withdrew, leaving him isolated. He held his ground long enough to enable reserves to be pushed up. Although severely wounded and greatly shaken by a shell bursting close to him, he stuck to his company until the danger was past. His example prevented his men giving a yard of ground.'

'Finding that enemy had some well posted machine gun on the flank of a battalion which he was supporting, he led his men forward, and with the assistance of a tank, cleared out the machine-gun nests, and secured the flank. Later on he pushed forward to the assistance of a battalion that was held up, and collecting all the men he could, he acted with great success. Throughout the day he displayed great personal courage and fine initiative.'
