Work at Lihons on20 August 1918.
Recommendation date: 23 August 1918

'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty at LIHONS on the 20th August 1918. Enemy snipers were very active and held commanding positions causing the front line troops a great amount of trouble. Private FRASER went out and secured sniping position in the vicinity of the front line. On the 21st August Private FRASER killed two of the enemy and wounded a third. Up to that time the Germans had been very aggressive. At 11 a.m. on the 22nd August a heavy barrage was put down on our front line and support and although in a concealed and not protected position Private FRASER remained on duty, killing three more of the enemy who exposed themselves to observe the effect of the barrage. Immediately the barrage lifted Private FRASER observed a party of ten of the enemy endeavouring to re-occupy a forward post that had been withdrawn during the barrage and was responsible for killing two more of this party and wounding a third. In addition to silencing enemy sniping, so saving a number of casualties, the information gained by Private FRASER was of the greatest value to the front line. His work during the whole tour displayed an untiring energy and utter disregard to personal safety which greatly inspired the front line men.'
