MC Citation reads 'For gallantry and devotion to duty throughout the operations Aug 8-10, 1918. On August 8, when carrying up Stokes Mortars and Bombs to the final objective, he passed another tank similarly engaged, broken down with mechanical trouble. He at once got out of his own tank and, in spite of enemy sniping and shell fire, transferred the mortars and bombs of the broken down tank to a small cart, which he towed behind him to the dumping point near Cayeux. For this he was warmly commended by the 2nd Canadian Infantry Brigade. On August 9 he again went into action near Beaufort. On this occasion the infantry were badly held up by heavy machine gum and rifle fire. He at once took his tank forward and inflicted very heavy casualties on the enemy and enabled our infantry to advance. Later, spotting an anti-tank gun, he immediately attacked it, completely demoralising the crew, who at once bolted. This officer has on all occasions set a splendid example to his men, showing exceptional keenness and devotion to duty'. (also in this auction is his Sons Berkshires group)
