rolt968 Posted 16 June , 2013 Share Posted 16 June , 2013 Unfortunately the actual citations for the vast majority of MMs awarded in World War 1 were not published. In most cases, the best you can do is to look at the local press and the unit war diaries. Roger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
