Malcolm Linham Posted 15 February , 2007 Author Share Posted 15 February , 2007 Many thanks Harry, We'll download the card and that will hopefully give us a date to start searching the gazette. Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebie9173 Posted 19 February , 2007 Share Posted 19 February , 2007 Cannot believe I missed a London Gazette query! Here's the link to his DCM announcement on 22nd October 1917. http://www.gazettes-online.co.uk/archiveVi...;selHonourType= and his citation on 26th January 1918. http://www.gazettes-online.co.uk/archiveVi...;selHonourType= The exact date and location of the action should be on the microfilm series WO391/6 29 for announcements of DCMs between Aug 1917 and 3rd October 1918. This can be viewed at the National Archives. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Linham Posted 19 February , 2007 Author Share Posted 19 February , 2007 Steve, It was'nt listed as a London gazette type entry because I was having trouble locating Alfred's MIC . Thank you for your time and trouble Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
