The Winning of a D.C.M. by Corporal French
In No Man’s Land near Death Alley, Corporal French leads a recon patrol under heavy fire. He volunteers to stay out while others retreat and later carries Leftenant Newall back to the trench. For his actions he earns the Distinguished Conduct Medal, sharing credit with Bonney and Hoaney, while the unit honors his bravery and recalls the cost to their friend Hungry Foxcroft and their squad.
