"For fine leadership and gallantry at Havrincourt, 12th to 15th September 1918. This man led a small bombing party at night to get touch with the enemy, whom he engaged and bombed out a post. He then established his own post and evacuated the wounded. Later, when placed in charge of a Lewis gun team, he showed great skill, and, selecting a good position, drove off a hostile counter attack." * Springwell
