Distinguished Conduct Medal 'In the operations near Jeancourt, on 18 September, 1918, whilst carrying his Lewis gun, he got somewhat in advance, but under heavy machine gun fire he immediately brought his gun into action, and by his determined use of same drove one of the crew of five men to surrender, whilst two others fled. Later, he engaged a low flying enemy plane, and caused it to make a forced landing on fire. He showed great gallantry and initiative throughout.'
