Military Medal 'On 1st September, 1918, during operations North of PERONNE, T/Corporal TWEED's Platoon was in support. At one stage of the advance he observed a gap between two of the leading platoons and immediately, on his own initiative, moved his section forward to fill it. He successfully mopped up the area, accounting for two Machine Guns and numerous prisoners, and maintained touch between the two Platoons. By his prompt action, T/Corporal TWEED undoubtedly saved us numerous casualties and his clever handling of his section enabled him to perform the task with no casualties in his section.'
