Mentioned in Despatches

JACQUES, Carlton Joseph, Stoker PO, V-19139, RCNVR, HMCS Esquimalt

Issued: 5-Jan-1946, Canada Gazette

"For outstanding gallantry and bravery in action. At the time of the sinking of HMCS Esquimalt, Petty Officer Jacques remained for some time helping others to get out of the mess decks so that they could abandon ship. Later he left his carley float to swim round and help others who could not swim. As a result of these further exertions and the additional time in the water, he died shortly afterwards."
