'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty on September 26th, 1918, near Havrincourt Wood. While supporting the attack of another division one of his gun team was blown up by a shell. He reorganised his battery under heavy artillery fire and thus was able to man the gun and bring it into action again. Later, on October 8th, near Crevecouer, he showed great initiative and skill in getting his battery into action in a very exposed position, and when the attack commenced, maintained his guns in action, in spite of a heavy barrage fire which opened on them, thereby greatly assisting the attacking infantry. His coolness and enterprise throughout these operations were of a very high order, and his cheerfulness and gallantry set a great example to his men.'
