'For gallantry and determination during a raid at GIVENCHY on the night 12/13th June, 1918.
This N.C.O. led his party to a point 50 yards down the C.T. beyond the enemy post which was being raided. He there established a block, engaging and beating off an enemy bombing party which attempted a counter attack.
When the order to withdraw was given, Corpl. THOMAS did so in a skilful manner, being himself the last to leave the enemy trench.
It was due to the N.C.O's skilful leading that this party successfully performed their task.'
The medal has been polished to the high points but is otherwise in good condition.
