Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. When a battery group was heavily shelled he got all his men safely away to a flank, and then, seeing that some officers had been wounded at a neighbouring battery, he went to the spot and, with the help of a NCO, carried two wounded officers to safety under intense fire. He set a splendid example to his men.'
