      London Gazette 17 June 1919, p7700, Rec No 3175 For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. On the 4th November during the attack north of Le Quesnoy this man did excellent and gallant work throughout. In the absence of the NCO in charge he took command of the Battalion runners and both during and subsequent to the attack arranged runner relay posts and report centres and superintended the carrying and delivery of all messages both to and from the front line. He worked tirelessly in his efforts to maintain communication with the front line troops, and to a very large extent it was due to his efforts that reports were received continuously and promptly by Brigade Headquarters giving the situation. His work throughout was of a very high order and deserving of the highest praise. AWMM
