      London Gazette 03/09/1918. "Awarded DCM for acts of gallantry in the field, and for conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in action. In the absence of his troop leader and though [wounded?] in the lead early in the day, he refused to leave the post but remained throughout the action rallying and cheering his men. The fine example of courage under heavy shell fire and msot trying conditions was worthy of highest praise." AWMM
