Cpl. Wilfred Kneale Teare MM.
British Army Sherwood Foresters
Wilfred Kneale enlisted in the British Army on 10th of September 1914 in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire with the Notts and Derby (Sherwood Foresters) Regiment. His regimental number was 2544 and later 305627. On the 25th of May 1917 a Military Medal was awarded for gallantry in the field. On 11th of September 1918 in Lichfield, Staffordshire Wilfred was discharged as no longer being physically fit for war service. His pension records show he was suffering with a heart condition (V.D.H aortic insufficiency). He died on 17th of June 1919 in Nottingham. His death was due to his heart condition.
I would like information on his Military Medal award.
