Hello Jo, yes your grandfather was commended for bravery following an aircraft crash. The London Gazette of 2nd May 1944 records Harold Ernest Taylor, Bulldozer driver, King's Lynn. Commended for brave conduct when aircraft crashed and caught fire.
No medal i'm afraid but probably would have received a paper commendation.
You can see the london gazette page if you search for Harold Ernest Taylor at www.gazettes-online.co.uk
Hope it helps, Tom
