Military Medal 'For continuous good work and unselfish devotion to duty on 8th August, 1918, at VILLERS BRETONNEUX., he acted as horse-holder to the reconnaissance party. Under heavy shell-fire he succeeded in getting the despatch-rider's horses to a place of safety, showing an utter disregard of danger. At ROISEL on 18th September, 1918, he acted as horse-holder, which entailed his holding two horses for an hour at the Battery position during the barrage, he remained at his post in spite of heavy shell fire. Later in the morning he acted as galloper between the Battery and the wagon line. During the preparation for various battles on the SOMME during September 1918, Bombardier PASCALL continually volunteered to go up with ammunition in place of 1914 men, who were waiting to return to Australia.'
