Military Cross 'During an attack he led a bombing party with the greatest gallantry and determination. In face of heavy fire he personally captured a machine gun, shooting three of the crew. After establishing a block in the captured trench he made a daring reconnaissance forward, and, finding better tactical ground, he returned for his platoon and occupied it, capturing another machine gun at the same time. He showed great courage and initiative.'
