LG 6th September 1916;
"Flight Sub-Lieut. Dallas, in addition to performing consistantly good work in reconnaissances and fighting patrols since December, 1915, has been brought to notice by the Vice Admiral, Dover Patrol, for the specially gallant manner in which he has carried out his duties. Amongst other exploits is the following:
On the 21st May, 1916, he sighted at least 12 hostile machines, which had been bombing Dunkerque. He attacked one at 7,000 feet, and then attacked a second machine close to him. After reloading, he climbed to 10,000 feet, and attacked a large hostile two-seater machine off Westende. The machine took fire and nose-dived seawards. Another enemy machine then appeared, which he engaged and chased to the shore, but had to abandon owing to having used all his ammunition."
