Military Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty on the YPRES MENIN Road under very heavy shell fire on 25th September, 1917. He volunteered to go into a part of the road which was being continually shelled and was strewn with dead men, horses and debris, and assist in clearing the traffic, thus allowing a free passage for ambulance cars conveying wounded from the front to Dressing Station. He showed a total disregard of personal danger, and set a fine example of courage and devotion to duty.'
