Lieut. W. Cobb.
For conspicuous gallantry and good work near Amman on 25th September, 1918. He made a personal reconnaissance under rifle and machine gun fire to help an attack by troops on the right, and at the critical moment pushed his guns forward and brought enfilade fire to bear on the position, thus greatly assisting in the capture of six machine guns and one hundred prisoners.
