Citation for BEM: 203 Pro Coy sections have been almost entirely responisble for the policing of Ismilia and Moascar Garrison. Sgt Dodd has, by his untiring efforts, in supervising the duties of these NCO's during the troublesome period when Ismailia was 'Out of Bounds', and then later when it was placed 'In Bounds' ensured that efficient control of the area has been maintained and that any "incidents" have been avoided. He has been on duty continually for practically the whole of this period, both by day and night, and although handicapped by shortage of NCO's somehow arranged to produce sufficient to meet any demand. His devotion to duty is of the highest, and he is a most loyal consciencious and hardworking NCO.Maj D Cresswell DAPM Moascar Garrison. Brigadier Moascar Garrison.
