Citation for his Military Medal
June 6th 1944 Staubun.
Rallied his sub section on the beach under fire after landing through deep water. He showed great calmness and resolution under these trying circumstances and was unmoved by enemy fire. During the street fighting in Langrune he repeatedly volunteered for, and carried out tasks of extra risk, leading and inspiring his sub section by his personal example. (L.G.29.5.44).

He is wearing the ‘split’ Cap Badge of a QMS RM or an Officer so will have been promoted at some time.
