Guest Lawrence Wells Posted 1 January , 2003 Share Posted 1 January , 2003 Does anybody have any printed source (etc) which might give some indication as to why a man in the 1/3rd Bn London Regiment was awarded an MM ? (gazetted 11/11/16) thanks, Laurie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Dodd Posted 1 January , 2003 Share Posted 1 January , 2003 It is possible that it could be for one of the later actions that the Division was involved in 1916 if you look at the 56th (1st London) Division section in the website you can see them.

Paul Reed Posted 1 January , 2003 Share Posted 1 January , 2003 Normally MMs were gazetted 3 months after the action; so you man got his in September 1916. At this time the 1/3rd Londons were heavily involved in the fighting at Combles - their actions and the others in the division are covered in my recent book of the same name. http://battlefields1418.50megs.com/great_w...y_paul_reed.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
