Military Medal (London Gazette, No. 29608, dated June 3, 1916) "On April 25th 1915 this N.C.O. left his trench and brought in two wounded men of another Battalion while under rifle and shell fire. On April 30th 1915 Cpl Scott again showed conspicuous bravery while under heavy shell fire in front of his own trench by voluntarily attending to several of his wounded comrades and organizing stretcher parties for the removal of these men. In the course of over a year on active service he has shown utmost courage and devotion to duty at all times."
