DSO: London Gazette, 1 January 1918. Citation: "For distinguished service in the field [in France & Flanders]." DSO Bar: London Gazette, 22 June 1918. Citation: "For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He supervised the assembly of his battalion for an attack in a difficult position. When part of one of the companies was held up during the attack, he at once went to the spot and by skilful leadership enabled the advance to continue. The success of the operations was largely due to his courageous example under intense machine-gun fire, which was an inspiration to all ranks." AWMM - 1914-1915 Star AWMM
