World War One / Re: Military medal and bar - how to find out why awarded?
« on: Friday 04 August 23 14:40 BST (UK)  »
Wounded in action at Le Catelet between 3/7th Oct where his actions were noted and was put forward for MM which was awarded and  entered into war diary on 23/10
He was a LCpl at the time and his number in brackets next to J Bryant

So he would have been evacuated back to UK after wounding

According to Williamsons book
That Gazette carries awards from 29 Aug to 1st week in Oct 1918 around Ypres ops so if you had the war diary you maybe able to reduce it even further

Thank You that's really helpful
He was a reservist in 1914 so wonder if he had Boer War service?
And why he enlisted with Pseudonym ?

The Gazette for 23rd August covers awards made between 28/6 and 23/7 1916

That's from Howard Williamsons Great War Medal companion
MM Citations were destroyed in WW2 Blitz - sometimes there are mentions in local newspapers of the time
