Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. Prior to an attack this officer carried out good work in marking out brigade assembly positions. He closely followed the attack, and vigorously set to work on consolidation when it was successful. As no stores had arrived, he organized parties for collecting captured stores, and, thanks to his energy and leadership, rapidly completed the consolidation.'
