Médaille Militaire
"Sergent pilot of the Army Air Service; pilot of the first order, courageous to the point of rashness, very close and very sure. Demonstrated his qualitites of courage and sang-froid on 26 March when, during a reconnaissance, his plane was very heavily fired upon and was hit several places by shrapnel, but he did not waver for an instant from the mission entrusted him. He particularly distinguished himself in the cooperation of his Escadrille during the operations of 5, 6 and 7 June." Médaille Militaire citation, 15 June 1915
 
Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur
"Adjudant pilot, energetic and adroit, he knows that by his example of ardor and courage, the young pilots of his Escadrille will follow him. On 15 February 1917, he downed a German plane which crashed to the ground behind our lines." Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur citation
