Sgt. Enoch "Knocker" Nash MM.

British Army 10th Btn Kings own Yorkshire Light Infantry

from:Hemsworth

My grandfather, Enoch Nash served in the KOYLI during WW1 from 1914 until demobbed in February 1919 in the 10th Battalion. He was awarded the military medal for bravery which I have in my possession, along with his 1914/15 star, British War Medal and Victory Medal. I believe he was awarded the Military Medal for bringing in his wounded captain (Capt. W. M. Penny) although he very rarely spoke of his war "it being too terrible". I don't have the citation for the medal and have had no luck trying to trace it.

Additional Information:

The captain referred to above was in fact a Doctor serving with the RAMC attached to the 64th (East Lancs)field ambulance
