Meritorious Service Medal 'Throughout the period of the Brigade's service in France this man has been noted for his fearless devotion to duty, good conduct and service. During a considerable portion of the Brigade's fighting he has been A.M.C. Orderly in various units. So, prominent have been his services, and so gallant his bearing under fire at all times, that he has been made subject of a presentation by his fellow soldiers. He has on many occasions been under notice for his gallantry and devotion with which he has worked under trying conditions.'
