Citation:
"One night in July 1942 this officer was captain of an aircraft detailed to attack Hamburg. Whilst over the target the aircraft was held in the beams of searchlights and subjected to heavy anti-aircraft fire. One engine was put out of action and the astro hatch shattered. In spite of this Flight Lieutenant Greenslade pressed home his attack. On the return flight searchlight positions and gun emplacements were machine-gunned from a low level. This officer, who invariably completes his operational tasks with skill and determination, displayed great devotion to duty throughout. "
