Military Medal 'At I.11.b.05.60 on 24th July 1917, one gun of the V/5 Australian heavy T.M. Battery was allotted the task of engaging a hostile strong point to cover the left flank of a raiding party. This brought down heavy retaliation by 5.9" Hows. One direct hit on the pit where he continued to serve his piece. The splendid example displayed by this man inspired the remainder of the detachment to maintain an effective fire.'
