Husband of Kathleen Hamilton, of Bulawayo, Rhodesia.
LG Sup 3 October 1918 - "For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. This warrant officer has done consistently fine work in every action he has been in. He is invariably sent forward with the bearer parties to relieve the regimental aid stations, and at work of this kind he cannot be surpassed. It has been due largely to his resource and coolness that the wounded have always been safely and quickly transferred from the firing line to the ambulance. He has been so employed in every action, and in two of them was under very heavy fire."
