For exceptional service while assigned as Commander of Operations for RFC No.42 Squadron, Space did distinguish himself by the following citation:

Space took leadership of air operations during No.42 Sqn's first squad vs squad tournament which in turn provided us with our first victory. Space took on the daunting task of organizing the lead-up discussions with our friends and virtual enemy JG1 and continues to liaise with them for future engagements. These meetings resulted in the current organization and mission parameters for not only our mini-tournament, but for the new incarnation of the Flanders in Flames tournament hosted by JG1.  

Space also led the Squadron by planning each mission and assigning flight goals. This task also included snap judgements made to complete the mission requirements as the battlefield forced numerous changes on us. Space's unique leadership and methods provided the environment for No.42 Squadron and pilots to repeatedly complete their missions in a timely manner and ultimately win several engagements with the enemy including the final push which forced the Germans to abandon their positions in their trenches.

Space's unrelenting loyalty serves to inspire the members of No.42 Squadron. His devotion to duty is in keeping with the finest traditions of military service and reflects credit upon himself, his unit, and the Royal Flying Corps. As the Commanding Officer of the No.42_Squadron, I commend you for your efforts and in recognition from a sincerely grateful command staff and the pilots of the No.42_Squadron award you the Distinguished Service Order.
