      L.G. 9 December 1916, p12058, Rec No 242 Action: Switch Line, South east of High Wood, 15th September, and Grid Support Trench, north east of Flers, 1st October 1916. This non-commissioned officer was present throughout both the above actions and showed conspicuous gallantry in siting positions for his Lewis guns, moving about in the open regardless of his own personal safety and reorganising his teams who had suffered severely. He also organised the carrying of ammunition up to the left flank which was exposed to heavy enemy machine-gun fire. Again on 1st October he showed great gallantry until wounded. AWMM
