For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He led his platoon with the utmost skill, and his personal example was a great incentive to all ranks. Later, when his company commander became a casualty, he assumed command and led his company to its final objective, where his energy and powers of organisation in carrying out the consolidation were most marked.
