1st MC LG Sup 25 November 1916 pg. 11536 - "For conspicuous gallantry in action. He led his men with great courage and determination. Later, although wounded, he remained at his post, consolidated the position, and repulsed an enemy attack." Bar to MC LG Sup 26 August 1917 pg. 8355 - "For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. During an attack he showed a splendid example in steadying the men under heavy hostile barrage prior to the assault. He visited the whole battalion front and reorganised the men, remaining in command in the captured line for three days in succession, and by his personal example and utter disregard of danger inspiring all ranks to fresh efforts. His gallantry made possible the consolidation of a difficult position." |
