The recommendation for the Immediate award of the Military Cross: “On the night of the 19/20 November 1943, Lieut R Scott-Evans crossed the River Sangro with a Company of the 6th Bn Royal West Kents who were to cover the start line of the Battalion for the attack on the 20/21 November on the river Licolli feature. His task was to take compass bearings from the start line. The Platoon he was with suffered heavy casualties and retired. Lieut Scott-Evans tried to locate the start line by himself but found enemy positions covering it. Next morning again he went forward with another platoon, at 2100 his platoon withdrew from it’s covering position as it was out of touch with the rest of the Company. Lieut Scott-Evans refused to withdraw and remained by himself patrolling the start line until 02.30 hrs to cover the advance of the Battalion. At this time he realised that the attack had been postponed and returned having successfully taken compass bearings and also marked the start line. All this was done within a few hundred yards of the enemy’s forward defence lines. He showed the greatest initiative and displayed courage in most adverse circumstances”. The award of the Military Cross was confirmed by General Alexander GOC in C.
