Gould Marks for his more prosaic deed of turning his ammunition section into a supply point and feeding all who came his way from May 29th to June 2nd". Captain Marks was awarded the Military Cross, his Investiture at Buckingham Palace 3rd September 1940. Captain Langton Marks, who when most of the Divisional RASC had embarked, organised his ammunition section as the Divisional RASC and fed the First and several other divisions for five days. This well nigh impossible task" says the War Office "was carried out under continuous air bombardment and shell fire and it was entirely due to his initiative and devotion that all ranks of division received rations". £600-700
