His brother, Edward Arthur Jago, also fell. Awarded the Military Cross & Distinguished Service Order. Citation for the Military Cross reads For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in carrying out a successful minor operation. When part of his company had been held up by a strong point containing a machine gun, he took command and captured the strong point, inflicting heavy losses on the enemy. (Supplement to the London Gazette, 5 July 1918)
