"For outstanding efficiency in the planning and administration of the victualling of the Canadian Naval Service. Commander Hubbard, who has served in the Royal Canadian Navy for twenty-five years and for five years prior to that in the Royal Navy, has by his persistence and zeal been largely responsible for the efficiency and improvement, during the war, of the supply of food for the Canadian Naval Service. His insistence upon providing and distributing additional comforts to sea going personnel has done much to raise the morale of personnel in His Majesty's Ships."
