    Extract from THE THIRTY-NINTH, The History of the 39th Battalion Australian Imperial Force written by Lieutenant-Colonel A.T. Paterson, DSO, MC, VD, pages 229-230.

    "In this action Sergeant Edgar E. Walter distinguished himself. He was subsequently awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal. There is no better way to describing his bravery than by quoting in full the recommendation forwarded to headquarters:

    10th. Aust. Infantry (ed. Brigade) 3rd. Australian (ed. Division)
    39th Battalion AIF. 1007, Sergeant Edgar Ernest WALTER

    "Near Cléry-sur-Somme (ed. in Northern France) on 31 August 1918, for most conspicuous gallantry in action.

    During the advance his company was held up by strong machine gun fire and this N.C.O. called out his section and led them against the opposition. He out-distanced his men and joined by an N.C.O. from the 38th Battalion rushed the position and succeeded by bombing and rifle fire in silencing eight enemy guns and put the teams to flight - the guns were all captured.

    Afterwards in a C.T. (ed. communications trench) they encountered a number of machine guns - again this N.C.O. was equal to the occasion and the crews not killed were captured.

    Still later in a storming party Sergeant WALTER was once more doing splendidly with Corporal Grinton of 38th Battalion, this time these intrepid N.C.Os. captured three high velocity enemy guns. These incidents were carried out with the utmost coolness and utter disregard of personal danger and had a very inspiring effect on the Company which advanced successfully to the final objective."

    (sgd.) J. Gellibrand MG (ed. Major-General, GOC 3rd. Division, AIF)

    [It is interesting to note that the Corporal A.V. Grinton of the 38th. Battalion mentioned above was also awarded a DCM for his part in these heroic events. (ed.)]

    The Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) was only awarded to NCOs and other ranks and was ranked second only to the Victoria Cross (VC) when gallantry in action was awarded. (ed.)
