| Medals |
Military Medal 'On the early morning of the 22nd August, 1918, during the offensive on the west of BRAY SUR SOMME, No. 2850, Private MUNDLE was employed as runner, attached to Lieutenant J.H. JAMES, M.C. He was continuously carrying messages, after the objective was reached, from the front line, which was on the forward slope just in front of the village, and swept continuously by enemy machine gun and rifle fire, which was particularly bad in this quarter. Through the messages he took to the trench mortar Officer, and to Company Headquarters, however, the situation was able to be effectively dealt with, and communication kept up. Throughout the whole operation, Private MUNDLE showed great courage and devotion to duty, setting a splendid example to all ranks.'
