    AWARDED THE MILITARY CROSS.
    T./2nd Lt. Robert Angles, attd. York &
    Lanc. Rgt.
    For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to
    duty. When the enemy attacked his position
    he showed the utmost coolness and courage
    in dealing with the situation. Though
    attacked with trench mortars, flammenwerfer
    and machine guns, by his excellent leadership
    and disregard of danger, and the keenness
    with which he inspired his men, he repelled
    the attack.
