For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty as a stretcher bearer. After a raid he found himself isolated with several wounded men in a shell hole close to the enemy's lines for a period of two days and a night. During this time, with splendid and unselfish devotion, he deprived himself of his clothing to make his wounded comrades more comfortable, and eventually brought them back to our lines safely, although in an exhausted condition himself.

CIMETIÈRE DE TYNE COT Belgique
Le cimetière de Tyne Cot est situé à 9 kilomètres au nord-est du centre-ville d'Ypres sur la Tynecotstraat, une route qui rejoint la Zonnebeekseweg (N332). Le cimetière de Tyne Cot se trouve 700 mètres plus loin, sur le côté droit de la Tynecotstraat.
Des fusiliers de Northumberland ont donné le nom de « Tyne Cottages » ou « Tyne Cotts » à un groupe de blockhaus allemands ou casemates situés près du passage à niveau sur la route reliant Passchendaele à Broodseinde. Trois de ces fortins existent toujours dans le cimetière. Le plus gros, qui avait été pris par la troisième division australienne le 4 octobre 1917, a été choisi par le roi George V durant son pèlerinage aux cimetières du front ouest en Belgique et en France en 1922 pour y ériger la Croix du Sacrifice.
Le cimetière Tyne Cot constitue la dernière demeure de près de 12 000 soldats des forces du Commonwealth et compte donc le plus grand nombre de sépultures de tous les cimetières du Commonwealth pour les deux guerres mondiales.
Pour plus d’informations, visitez la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth (site disponible en anglais seulement).
