Military Cross 'On 11th September 1918, near Vendelles, north west of St. Quentin, he very gallantly and skilfully led a daylight fighting patrol against the outpost positon. Although strongly opposed by heavy machine gun and rifle fire, he determinedly forced his way forward and got a footing in the enemy's trench, capturing ten of the enemy. The success of his operation allowed the troops on both flanks to advance, and subsequently resulted in a gain of over 1,700 yards. Later, during an enemy counter attack, he showed great coolness while ascertaining the situation.'
