In April 1917, he was awarded the Military Medal for conduct displayed during fighting at Bullecourt. Jackson was later appointed as an acting company sergeant major and was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal for conduct during a trench raid at Bullecourt.

For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty during a raid. Although not taking part in it, he went out under very heavy fire at a critical moment, having learnt that the raid was making very little progress owing to considerable opposition. He reorganised parties and led them forward, afterwards personally conducting stretcher bearers up to the enemy lines and clearing No Man's Land of wounded. His fearlessness and splendid initiative at a trying time proved invaluable to the success of the operation.
