Military Medal 'Operations: British front opposite Beaumont Hamel from 26th March. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. This NCO was in charge of a platoon
which he handled in a very masterly manner, showing very fine leadership and judgement. His steadiness and courage under heavy machine gun fire was a
splendid example to all under his command. When his platoon had pushed forward as far as possible, he went round supervising the work of consolidation, and
encouraging and cheering his men.'
