* Has at all times shown great judgment and the highest knowledge of
minesweeping. He has handled his ship in very tough weather and passed the sweep with the greatest skill
and expedition, thereby rendering most valuable assistance to me as my sweeping partner.
** On other papers the Vice Admiral Dover has called attention to the excellent work done by the Mine Clearance Officer, Lt.Commander Baillie-Grohman. This officer has accepted the
personal risks to some extent and it is suggested that his name is included in those mentiond for their sevices.
