Military Medal 'During the advance on the 18th September, 1918, near LE VERGUIER, Lance Corporal Miller was in charge of a Lewis Gun Section. The right flank of his Company was held up by an enemy machine gun post. Being unable to engage it from the prone position Miller moved forward alone in full view of the enemy and firing from the hip with deadly precision succeeded in silencing the enemy fire. Mainly as a result of his splendid daring and initiative his Company were enabled to capture an important enemy post which yielded 100 prisoners and 14 machine guns with a casualty.'
