Lieut. Carrick Stewart Paul (Australian
F.C.). (EGYPT)
Lieut. William James Alexander Weir (Australian L.H. and Australian F.C.).
(EGYPT)
Lieutenant Paul is a gallant and skilful Pilot, who has been very ably assisted by his Observer, Lieutenant Weir. These officers have shown great initiative in attacking ground objectives on numerous occasions, notably on 14th August, when, in face of intense hostile fire, they, at a very low altitude, attacked bodies of enemy cavalry, causing heavy casualties. They have also displayed great courage and skill in air combats, having destroyed four enemy aircraft.
