Good evening all, currently looking to research Captain H E P Yorke, RAMC attended the wounded of the 13th Battalion East Yorks at Serre. Can anyone help with information, possibly a photo.

 

Regards

Apparently, he got the MC on the same day as his mother got the bar to the Royal Red Cross.

 

There's an image of both of them on around 3:54

This is the London Gazette version of the M.C. notification

https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/29898/page/463

 

It was awarded for his actions in the "Hebuterne Sector 13.11.16"

Edit to add:- Gazetted as Lieutenant 10 May 1915

https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/29191/supplement/5726

 

Cannot see a gazette for a M.i.D., the date in jonbem's post #8 is the date of the gazette for his M.C.

 

Edit to add:- End of his military career - ceased to belong to the Reserve of Officers 9 January 1941 https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/35038/supplement/190
