Military Medal (MM)

In the attack against the German trenches south of Thelus on 9 April, this NCO did very fine work in keeping up communications by means of visual signalling. He relayed messages from the flanks back to our batteries when our shells were falling short and he showed the greatest coolness in his work while under machine-gun and shell fire.
