Military Cross 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He reconnoitred an assembly position under heavy fire and in a thick fog, and skilfully guided the companies to the areas allotted to them. At a later stage of the attack he again selected positions, and assembled the companies for the attack on the final objective. He then advanced with the attacking troops, and asisted in the capture of an enemy machine gun, which he used with great success against the enemy. He showed splendid skill and resource.'
