The citation for his award reads: ?Although wounded in the leg and only able to hobble he continued to lead his platoon against stiff opposition and personally led a ?Blitz? attack against an enemy LMG [Light Machine-Gun] in a bunker, capturing it and killing four of the enemy, and thus enabling the remainder of the Company to advance on its objective. He continued in action until the whole objective was made secure and by his staunchness and coolness throughout was the inspiration of his men.?
