For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty on June 19th when the Battalion captured enemy trenches near FOSSE 3 DE LIEVIN, S.W. of LENS.

His whole team became casualties through the burst of a trench mortar, but it spite of this he continued to fire the gun himself inflicting many casualties upon the enemy. He behaved with great coolness and courage throughout.
