'During the advance from VILLERS-BRETONNEUX on the morning of 8th August 1918, this N.C.O. was temporarily cut off from his section officer owing to the density of the fog that prevailed at the time. Whilst situated so, he found himself faced with strong opposition from an enemy post, he organised his party and successfully fought his way through, which enabled him to bring his two guns into action from a flank into line with the advancing Infantry. His capable and gallant leadership whilst temporarily detached from his section officer, materially assisted towards the success of the operation.'
