Do you have a source for the award of the DSO? I've gone through my lists up to 1924 and not come across his name. I'm intrigued that a non-British officer in a non-British service was awarded a very high award (in terms of gallantry, second-only to the Victoria Cross), posthumously, three years after his death.
