Distinguished Conduct Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty as a stretcher bearer. He led a bearer squad through heavy barrage to a forward post, and, when casualties occurred, re-organized them and carried on with his work under heavy shelling until all the wounded had been evacuated. He was always at hand at critical moments, and showed the greatest disregard of personal danger in attending to the wounded, earning the admiration of the whole battalion by his fearlessness and devotion.'
