Decoration Militaire (Belgium) Source: 'Commonwealth Gazette' No. 9 Date: Military Medal 'During the operations of the 19/22nd September, 1917, at POLYGON WOOD, east of YPRES, Cpl. COOKE displayed great resourcefulness and courage when in command of a Lewis Gun Section. His team was sent forward to man an outpost position and when a shell blew out his team he got his gun in order and manned the post alone until such time as he could get a signal back for reinforcements. By his dogged determination to hang on, although badly shaken, he set a great example and materially helped in keeping the enemy down and allowing his consolidation to proceed.'
