GREAT BRAVERY
"With The Canadian Forces in
Prance.—While leading his platoon
against Bourlon Wood a lieutenant
of a British Columbia battalion
found himself held up by machine
gun fire from a sunken road. He
tools his men round the enemy's
flank and captured the Btronghold,
ki'lin* thjj crew and capturing one
officer and ten men who had one
field gun and four machine guns.
Later on, having passed through
our front wave, hi^ partj; was
checked by a strong enemy post
south o* Bourlon Wood. Many of
hig own company by this time were
casualties, so, gathering together a
detail from another wmpany( he
led that- on.
He rushed the post a'one, killing
the officer and capturing forty-nin
prisoners with machine gui>«. Push
ing on to their final objective, the
partv captured two officers and for
ty-five other ranks. Their right
flank bein£ in the air, they took up
a defensive position, forming a flank
'or the adjoinng troops.
On October 1, at Blecourt, this
intrepid officer found himself in
command of a company reduced to
fittv ot ail ranks, and with this llt
tlp band he captured eighty Pris
onor? and seventeen machine guns.
In two days' fighting his record

In the attack on Bourlon Wood
on September 27, a lieutenant of
a Manitoba regiment, finding his
company commander and another
officer, casuatlies, took command of
the snattreed companies and skil
fully reorganized them under heavy
shell fire. He then attacked and
carried his objective.
Finding his company enfiladed', he
attached, single-handed, tne enemy
pos», capturing a machine gun ana
ten nrisoners. Having organized hi
position, he repelled four counter-at
tacks, and then proceeded to cap

incredible exertion^ by his wonder

H.> was fatally wounedd.
One lieutenant of a New Bruns
wick battalion, the holder of a mili
tary medal, personally led an attack
in front of inchy on September 27.
The next day, near Baillencourt,
notwithstanding heavy casualties, he
again led the battalion into action,
storming his objective.
Toward evening, the enemy
launched very heavy counter-attacks
on a broad front. The brunt of It
fell on this battalion, which wae
formerlj a Manitoba unit, and, suf
fering severe casualties, the line was
-temporarily pushed back.
A Per making a personal reeon

uni's of the brigade, counter-attack
ed ®nd drove the enemy out, re

His gallant example inspired the
