right had not advanced, but he dug a trench and repelled bombing 

 attacks throughout the night. The next morning he was forced 

 to retire a short distance. When opportunity offered he at once 

 re-occupied his position, re-armed his men with enemy rifles and 

 bombs, most of theirs being smashed, and beat off more than one 

 counter-attack. 



2nd.-Lt. Moore held this post under continual shell fire for 

 thirty-six hours until his force was reduced to ten men, out of 

 six officers and 130 men who had started the operation. He 

 eventually got away his wounded, and withdrew under cover of 

 a thick mist. 



As an example of dashing gallantry and cool determination 

 this young officer's exploit would be difficult to surpass."
