Military Medal 'In an attack on a strongly fortified enemy position on the 18th September 1918, this N.C.O. was in charge of a section of Dummy Tanks. The advance to the objective was conducted under most difficult and harassing conditions, enemy shell fire was very heavy. This N.C.O. showed a total disregard to personal danger and it was owing to his courage and cheering on of his men that the section were able to carry out a most difficult task and to reach their objective. The successful carrying out of this work had a considerable influence on the success of the other arms engaged in the operation.'
