"During a fire in HMCS Arras, Lieutenant McQuarrie was responsible for the removal of ships from the jetty under trying conditions, and was largely instrumental in beaching HMCS Arras which was blazing furiously, and her ultimate salvage. Throughout the entire action, this Officer displayed exemplary devotion to duty."
