DAVIDSON, Edgar, A/Lieutenant-Commander (SB) , RCN(R)

Issued: 15-Jun-1946, Canada Gazette

"During the war, Lieutenant-Commander Davidson has aided materially in the Royal Canadian Naval War effort. He was instrumental in evolving the method of interrogating Prisoners of war, and on behalf of the Navy, he was able to obtain valuable information clarifying the sinking of the Athenia and HMCS Esquimalt, which evidence was subsequently used in the Nuremberg War Criminal trial. At all times he has discharged his duties with great zeal and energy, in keeping with the high traditions of the Royal Canadian Navy."
