STEVENG Posted 20 November , 2014 Share Posted 20 November , 2014 Hello, I am new to the forum, and looking for help or some guidance, I am trying to research this soldier who won the Military Medal , I would like to try and find out what he would have done to win this award or action he would have been in. Also where I could find out where he came from. Any help is gratefully appreciated. Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBrook Posted 20 November , 2014 Share Posted 20 November , 2014 A late award, gazetted May 1919, so difficult to guess for what action it may have been awarded. He was from Glasgow. https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/31338/supplement/6041 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roughdiamond Posted 20 November , 2014 Share Posted 20 November , 2014 Military Medal citations did not survive, your best bet is to check the newspapers local to where he lived around the time of the London Gazette announcement to see if they ran a story.
