jnorthall Posted 16 April , 2008 Share Posted 16 April , 2008 I'm doing some research on Lt George Latham of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers and would like a lookup in The Times for his Military Cross in 1917 and Bar in 1918. Can anyone help? Thanks!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procat Posted 16 April , 2008 Share Posted 16 April , 2008 Hi JRN, From The Times, Friday, Aug 17, 1917; pg. 2 Army Honours. Stories Of Bravery In The Field. Unfortunately I couldn't find him for the awarding of the Bar - poor indexing or oousy searching on my part. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnorthall Posted 17 April , 2008 Author Share Posted 17 April , 2008 Thanks Doug! The Bar was won on 6th November 1917 and appeared in the London Gazette on 18th February 1918. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procat Posted 18 April , 2008 Share Posted 18 April , 2008 JRN, Unfortunately my link to the Times is not working at the moment. I'll have a look tomorrow to see if i can pick it up - if no-one else beats me to it. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
