Military Medal 'In the attack on enemy trenches east of GUEUDECOURT on night 4th/5th February, 1917, Sergeant FITZPATRICK's Platoon being without an Officer, he led it to the assault with great dash and resolution. Throughout a number of counter attacks and until his Company was relieved on night 9th/10th February, 1917, he was constantly at his post, always on the alert. On one occasion he went out into "No Man's Land" top reconnoitre and seeing one of the enemy, chased him and brought him in at the point of the revolver. His work has ben uniformly good throughout.'
