Sherwood Forester Military Medal Winners of 1916
The following information is presented in alphabetical order by surname. The date given corresponds to the date that the award was gazetted in the London Gazette. The date that the award was actually earned is often difficult to ascertain, but was frequently 2 or 3 months prior to the award being gazetted. As the London Gazette rarely produced a citation for the award of Military Medals it is also often difficult to discover the reasons why the award was earned.
