Military Medal 'This N.C.O. showed great initiative and personal courage during the operations near MORLANCOURT, South West of ALBERT on the night 28/29th July 1918. After his Platoon Commander had become a casualty he took command and led his platoon to the final objective, setting a splendid example and displaying excellent leadership. During the consolidation and during the heavy shelling next night this N.C.O.'s unfailing cheerfulness inspired his men with the utmost confidence.'
