Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He took command of his company when his company commander was wounded at the opening of the attack. Whilst moving forward in support, he led a small party of men into a gap in the line where an enemy machine gun and riflemen were causing heavy losses, killed the gun crew, and captured the gun. On his own initiative he filled a dangerous gap in the line, and made good the position. He showed splendid courage and leadership throughout.'
