For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty.When in command of a company holding a front line, the enemy broke through on his left flank and occupied a position. He at once organised a counter attack and recaptured it. Three times the enemy attacked and gained the position only to be driven out again. On the third occasion he personally captured a machine gun, disposing of the crew of three men. Throughout the operation his fine courage and skilful leadership were of the highest order.
