DCM

[Dannemois]

137614, William Morgan, Royal Engineers: a note on the service record for this soldier states he was awarded the DCM [London Gazette 15/9/1915] I have tried but failed to locate the entry, can someone please help locate it.

Regards, Roy

Hello Roy,

He won his DCM as a soldier with the Monmouthshire Regiment attached to the RE.

Here is a link to the London Gazette entry.

If you search the NA MIC s you'll find his card bearing both service numbers.

Cheers,

Nigel

William Morgan was issued with two medal index cards.

On one of them it also gives his second regiment as the Monmouthshire Regiment with a regimental number of 497. Try looking for his DCM using those details - if you have access to ancestry the DCM quotation can be found there.

Snap Nigel!

You're welcome Roy,

The London Gazette can be a real pain sometimes, even when you have all the details to hand.

Cheers,

Nigel
