Military Medal 'During the operations east of YPRES on 4th October 1917, he was employed on the construction of a Strong Point near MOLENAARELSTHOEK. He performed with excellent skill and judgment the additional duties which fell to his lot as a result of two senior N.C.O.s becoming casualties. When his section was relieved at night he displayed unselfish gallantry remaining behind to assist a wounded comrade to the dressing station-a distance of two miles over difficult and dangerous ground.'
