Distinguished Conduct Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. During an important attack by our troops this non-commissioned officer was engaged during the whole action, distinguishing himself by his gallantry and devotion to duty. When, during a lull in the fighting, his platoon were allowed to rest, he volunteered, with self sacrificing determination, to go out as a stretcher bearer, and he brought in many wounded men.'
