For gallant and distinguished service in N.W. Europe. Recommendation states: Since this officer mobilised with 202 Fixed Defences in February 1943 his work as District Officer has been outstanding. It was mainly due to his hard work and perseverance that the Coast Artillery Operations Room at Nieuwe Sluis was ready to operate when the first convoy entered the Scheldt on Nov. 28th 1944. From this date until May 1945, as one of three officers on the War Establishment, he took his turn for night duty as Seawards Defence Commander, in addition to his ôQö work by day for both the military and naval personnel at the Station. He gave warning to Navy Ostend on the night Dec. 23/24, 1944 of unidentified radar plots off the Scheldt entrance subsequently proved to be midget submarines making their first attempt to penetrate past Flushing. His keenness was an inspiration to the Operations Room Watchers and his sound administration considerably helped in ensuring very close cooperation between the two Services. The recipient came from Houghton-le-Spring.
