George
McIntosh Citation from The London Gazette: 4 September 1917,
Supplelment: 30272Page: 9261
No.265579 Pte. George Mclntosh, Gord. Highrs. (Buckie., Banffshire).
For most conspicuous bravery when, during the consolidation of a position, his Company came under machine gun fire at
close range.
Pte. Mclntosh immediately rushed forward under heavy fire,
and, reaching the emplacement, he threw a Mill's Grenade into
it, killing two of the enemy and wounding a third. Subsequently,
entering the dug-out, he found two light machine guns, which
he carried back with him.
His quick grasp of the situation and the utter' fearlessness
and rapidity with which he acted, undoubtedly saved many of
his comrades and enabled the consolidation to proceed unhindered
by machine gun fire. Throughout the day the cheerfulness and
courage of Pte. Mclntosh was indomitable, and to his fine
example, in a great measure, was due fine example, in a great
measure, was due the success which attended his Company.

266011 Sjt. O. SIMPSON (Keith)
For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty.
When his company was scattered by hostile shell fire at its
position of assembly, he, with admirable coolness,collected
and reformed the men in the assembly position. But for his enterprise
and resource at this period the whole advance would have been
seriously hampered.
Later, when one platoon was held up bat a machine-gun he, going
forward alone without hesitation, bombed the team and captured
the gun. His great courage and general conduct were worthy of
the highest praise. (23.3.18)
