"In charge of the Finance Department Military Liaison Greece, this officer had also to act as Financial adviser to the GOC-in-C Greece during much of the critical period in Greece. His ruthless clear thinking, boundless energy and hard headed realism in matters of finances had a direct bearing on Government policy. The M.L. operation could not have done so well as it has if Lt. Col. Smith had not been at the financial helm."
