Citation

LG Sup 21 Oct 1918 - DCM "For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. As a marksman, he has accounted for many hostile snipers. On one occasion, while on a daylight patrol, he sniped two of the enemy, and succeeded in bringing in the body of one, thus securing identification. He is absolutely fearless, and his presence instills confidence in the men." MM LG Sup 19 March 1918
