Distinguished Service Cross (United States) Source: 'Commonwealth Gazette' No. 119 Date: Military Medal 'Is recommended for conspicuous gallantry and skill as a machine gunner where he proved himself of distinctive value during the attack near ZONNEBEKE on 26th September, 1917. On the afternoon of the 27th September, 1917, when a heavy counter attack was impending and our parapet was being swept by enemy snipers and machine guns in addition to artillery barrage, he mounted his gun in a very exposed position in order to obtain the best field of fire and although his tripod was hit several times by snipers bullets and his tunic ripped, he fearlessly stood to his post and inflicted heavy losses on he enemy. The work done by this N.C.O. was of considerable value in repulsing a determined counter attack by the enemy.'
