      London Gazette 17 June 1919, p7700, Rec No 3177 For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. During the advance north of Le Quesnoy on the 4th November this NCO did excellent and gallant work while in charge of a Lewis gun section of one of the Leading Platoons. When the advance of his platoon was held up by machine-gun fire from a house flying a red cross flag he handled his section with considerable skill and under fire of his Lewis gun effected an entrance into the building and called on the garrison to surrender. His prompt action, fine leadership and handling of his section under fire resulted in the surrender of 2 Officers and 30 ordinary ranks of the enemy and 1 machine-gun. His work throughout the entire operation was of a very high order. AWMM
