Mentioned in Despatches; 1st January 1916
London Gazette Military Cross; 3rd June 1916 “For distinguished services in the field”
No citation exists but from the unit history we learn the following in regards to the battle of Loos 25th to 27th September 1915”
“2nd-Lieut. Vincent was sent to get in touch with the Royals on the other side of the slag-heap. During these movements 18 Poles and Silesians gave themselves up to Regimental Headquarters.”
“2nd-Lieut. Vincent carried out a reconnaissance along the slag-heap to clear up the situation. He obtained valuable information, which was conveyed to the officer commanding the 2nd Scots Guards”
London Gazette for Bar to the Military Cross; 26th July 1918
Citation to the Military Cross Bar; “For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in a successful charge against the enemy infantry and machine guns, resulting in the capture of 100 prisoners and the recapture of a valuable tactical position. He also rendered fine service in obtaining valuable information on numerous mounted patrols during operations”.
The unit history also states the following in regards to the German Offensive- Villers Bretonneux “Lieut. Vincent moved off immediately, coming under fire almost at once. Some 1,200 yards of plough land had to be covered to reach the objective. They advanced steadily and soon met parties of Germans, who fired until the troops was some 200 yards from them. The men then charged with a cheer and the enemy bolted for the copse. Many were sabred and shot as they ran, 4 machine guns being captured. Some of the troop now dismounted, pursued the Germans amongst the trees, and bought back 12 prisoners. Thus the right flank was secured.”
