Awarded Military Medal
'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty during the attack on our positions opposite DERNANCOURT and ALBERT on the 5th April 1918. He went out without hesitation under heavy shell fire to mend telephone wires that had been cut. Communication on his line was constantly maintained except during a period when the line was cut by shell fire faster than it could be repaired. During this period Gunner ELLIS acted as runner between the 41st and 42nd Batteries. Owing to his courage and resource, orders from Group Headquarters were passed to 41st Battery through 42nd Battery at a critical period - when telephone lines from Group headquarters to the former Battery were out of action.' Awarded French Crois de General Killed in action 03 November 1918 at Le Catelet, France Aged 22 years Buried Highland Cemetery, Le Cateau, France Courtesy of Patricia Hammond Queenslander Pictorial Supplement 25 March 1916 page 23 |
