    From the Supplement to the Edinburgh Gazette dated 25 January 1916: Award of the Military Cross to Lieutenant George Philip Burlton, 1st Battalion Norfolk Regiment. For conspicuous gallantry on the night of 1st December, 1915, near Mametz. When a German mine was exploded he went to the spot, was lowered down the shaft, and by his personal endeavour and example was largely instrumental in saving the lives of several unconscious men.//
