The party was subject to heavy rifle and machine gun fire from a range of about three hundred yards, but Sapper Duffy with amazing coolness continued to work his mine detector. Later, his party working on the anti-tank ditch were forced into it by heavy fire, but Sapper Duffy remained working in an exposed position. Seeing that the tapes marking the edge of the gap had been badly cut by the shellfire, he ran back by himself from cover and repaired them so that the tanks could cross. When his platoon officer was wounded he ran back two hundred yards with another supper over ground swept by fire to bring up a stretcher and helped to carry him back to safety. Throughout the operation his complete disregard of danger and initiative were outstanding and a magnificent example to the remainder of his party.
