"In addition to carrying out his regular duties as Senior Technical Gunmounting Officer on the staff of the Director of Naval Ordnance, Lieutenant Lindsay has performed invaluable service in working in collaboration with the British Admiralty Technical Mission. He was personally responsible for working out the major change in the design of a new gunmounting being manufactured in Canada which enabled an unique combination of anti-aircraft weapons to be developed and made ready for use in His Majesty's Canadian ships allocated for the war against Japan. The development of this weapon in Canada to meet a particular operational requirement in a remarkably short period of time was in considerable part, due to this Officer."
