Mates,

I wonder what you have on this man?

My checking the net finds only his father/or a relation Arthur McMurrough-Kavangh

I have this much on him?

KAVANAGH    AT McMurrough        Capt    British Army    7th Hussars MC to GSO (2) Imperial MD HQ 2-17 prom Maj GSO (2) Aust MD HQ 6-17 to UK leave 1-18 rtn 4-18 MC - reason not stated mention att as swordsman ship instructor 04 LHR 8-18 AKA McMurrough-Kavangh related to the famous Arthur MacMurrough Kavanagh MP House of Commons born with no arms and legs
 

Australian records show him only Maj AT McMurrough-Kavangh 7 Hussars MC

The MIC's show two men but only "A" and the other with "D"

The net gives me another Charles LtCol 11 Hussars?

Can you help fill in the gaps here?

S.B

Hi S.B.

Fold3 have the details of Arthur Thomas Mcmurrough-Kavanagh, Captain 7th Hussars, who won his MC in Mesopotamia, citation reference 30450/1 Jan 1918. 

Hope that fills a little more in.
