| Citation: | Citation for MBE. Maj Wilfred George Lloyd, APM 3 Canadian Division, Canadian Pro Corps.Citation; By reason of the initiative, leadership and organising ability of Major Wilfred George Lloyd, Assistant Provost Marshal, provost resources with the Third Canadian Infantry Division have at all times met the exceedingly heavy demands placed upon them. This has been most evident during the periods of active operations when traffic control on operational routes and the handling of prisoners of war have stretched provost resources to the limit. On every occasion involving a move of this formation, Major Lloyd has personally gone to the forward areas to ensure that traffic moved in accordance with the plan. Many times under enemy shell fire, the presence of Major Lloyd, his coolness, fine soldierly example and ability to overcome obstacles, no matter how dangerous the situation, have been the main factor in keeping the traffic moving forward unimpeded. As a disciplinarian Major Lloyd has imbued all ranks with the high standard which he himself has set. The excellent standard of discipline, deportment and esprit de corps among Provost personnel in this formation are the direct result of the insistence at all times by Maj Lloyd that all ranks not only do their job well but also under any and all conditions. As a soldier and leader of men Major Wilfred George Lloyd has, by his ceaseless efforts, achieved an unrivalled reputation. Recommended by Maj W N Wickwire, DAAG, 3 Canadian Div, Maj Gen D G Spry, GOC 3 Can Inf Div, Lt Gen G G Simonds, Comd 2 Canadian Corps. |
