clearance ports France & Low Countries * / ** |
* "For exceptional gallantry, skill and great devotion to duty, often in close proximity to the enemy, during mine-searching and clearance operations in the ports of Normandy and of the Low
Countries."
** A document dated 21.07.1945 states:
"Lieutenant Saull went into Ouistreham in advance of the Naval Party with which he was serving, and discovered demolition charges on the lock gates and the bridge which he rendered safe. With another officer he discovered and removed scuttling and demolition charges from craft and strong points in the Port area and rendered safe a controlled minefield in the harbour entrance."
As it speaks of a "bar to the George Medal" it is probably a citation
for a further decoration following upon Saull's death, which was in the end not
substantiated.
