Flt. Cdr. Guy William Price, D.S.C., R.N.A.S.
For consistency and determination in attacking enemy aircraft, often in superior numbers.
On the 22nd January, 1918, when on offensive patrol, he observed seven Albatross scouts. He dived and fired into one of the enemy aircraft, which stalled, side-slipped, and eventually fell over on its back, disappearing through a thick bank of clouds, and was observed by others of our machines to fall completely out of control.
On several other occasions he has destroyed enemy machines or brought them down completely out of control.
