Lance-Corporal McDonnell Shows What Three Brave Men Can Do Against Ten Times Their Number. A large party of Germans in an advanced trench in a wood surprised Lance- Corporal McDonnell and two companions of the 1st Grenadier Guards when reconnoitring on the Aisne on The 23rd of September 1914. The enemy thought they had there preyed secure and began leisurely to walk out to take the three men prisoners. To their astonishment McDonnell gave a sharp order to fire, and the bullets flew thick and fast, finding many a victim. Before the Germans could recover from their confusion the three audacious Guardsmen had made good their escape. He was awarded the D.C.M. |

Lance-Corporal Fuller was quite alone at the time, and for the most conspicuous bravery displayed by him he was awarded the V.C. |
Captain E. N. E. M. Vaughan And His Men drive Back The Enemy From An Isolated Trench. When in command of an isolated trench and attacked on front, flank and rear, Captain Eugene Napoleon Ernest Mallet Vaughan (Reserve of Officers) Grenadier Guards, drove off the enemy, killing over 100 of them, and took twenty prisoners. His fine example gave great confidence to his men, and he was subsequently awarded the D.S.O. for his conspicuous gallantry. |
Captain A. C. De Wiart Advancing To The Attack Through An Intense Fire Barrage. Owing largely to the dauntless courage and inspiring example of Captain (Temporary Lieutenant-Colonel) Adrian Carton De Wiart, D.S.O., of the Grenadier Guards, a serious reverse was averted during severe and prolonged operations. He displayed the utmost energy and courage in facing the British attack home. After three other battalion commanders had become casualties, he controlled their commands, and ensured that the ground won was maintained at all costs. He frequently exposed himself in the organisation of positions and of supplies, passing unflinchingly through a most intense fire barrage. He was awarded the V.C. for most conspicuous bravery, coolness and determination. |
