Military Cross
'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. With marked fearlessness and coolness he led the main storming party of a raid into the enemy trenches where he personally saw to the demolition of a large concrete dugout, and brought back important information, being the last to leave the trench. He has at all times shown splendid leadership, and is held in very high esteem by his men.'
