The citation reads: During the enemy attack on 6, 7 and 8 Mar. 43 and for the two days preceding it, this officer was in command of the screen in front of our positions from Dawn to Dusk. He was operating in very open country in full view of the enemy's artillery and small arms fire. He showed the most outstanding bravery and leadership. He walked from carrier to carrier encouraging the crews across shell swept ground. On two occasions carriers became stuck and this officer showing the utmost coolness and determination and disregard for his personal safety, directed their recovery although they were the target of the enemy artillery. Throughout these days this officer's conduct has been an inspiration to all ranks. The Battle of Medenine, Tunisia saw the final defeat by the British Eighth Army of the Afrika Korps. Rommel left Africa for the last time, immediately afterwards.
