For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He went out under heavy
fire and
assisted many wounded men by dressing their wounds and placing them in
positions
of safety. Though wounded by shrapnel he continued at duty collecting
ammunition
from casualties for distribution to the Lewis guns which were running
short, and reorganising
the troops who had become scattered during the advance.
