Légion d'Honneur |
"Elite officer, model of bravery, taking part daily in difficult combats where his skill and audacity always win over his adversaries thereby gaining for him the admiration of those around him. During recent battles his efforts have been superb. He reported his 10th official victory by downing a plane behind our lines." Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur citation, 8 August 1918 |
