CITATION:
Military Medal : This NCO was dropped North of Florence on 8 September 43 and returned to our lines 73 days later. The commander of his stick Lieut Bell, 2 S.A.S. Regiment, broke two ribs on landing and being in considerable pain for three days, handed over command of his party to Sgt. Daniels while he was taking morphine to ease the pain. Sgt. Daniels succeeded in keeping Lieut Bell with the party, and was conspicuous throughout the operation during which three trains were sabotaged and much other damage to enemy L of C. By his leadership he made the operation a great success when failure seemed likely.
