Issued: 16-Jun-1945, Canada Gazette
"This Rating was drafted to his ship early in the construction period during which time he rendered valuable assistance to the Engineer Officer. A Norwegian, he joined the Canadian Navy early in the war and has served constantly at sea in His Majesty's Canadian Corvettes as Chief Engine Room Artificer. The fact that the engines of this ship have performed perfectly since this ship was commissioned and have steamed 25,000 miles in that period is considered due to the diligence of this Rating."
