INDENTM.C. London Gazette 20.10.1916., Second Lieutenant, Temporary Captain, James Lander Chalmers, Royal Flying Corps Special Reserve. "For conspicuous gallantry and skill. He has done much fine counter-battery work, often flying very low under heavy fire from the ground. On one occasion, one of our shells broke the main spar of his machine. On another, in one flight, he dealt effectively with four enemy batteries."
