Pte. Eric Hyde White MM.

British Army Kings Royal Rifle Corps

Eric White was my father's elder brother. He was born in Swansea in 1895 and joined the KRRC in 1914. His service records have survived. In October 1918 the battalion was at Englefontaine near Mons and he won a Military Medal for an action fought at this village. Anecdotally it is believed that he won the medal for replacing a telegraph wire which had been brought down by enemy fire. I would be very interested in any information held or details of the citation if there was one.
