Born 25th October 1888. Died of typhus at Reval,

Special Order of the Day for Notification to all Ranks
The G.O.C. British Military Mission has with much regret to announce
the death of Major H. D. C. Craig, M.C., H.L.I., from typhus contracted
in the performance of his duties.
Major Craig, with a tireless devotion to duty, and with complete dis-
regard of personal safety, has done splendid work in helping to ameliorate
the conditions of the officers and men of the N.-W. Army at Narva.
In carrying out this work he was thoroughly aware of the dangers he
ran, which finally resulted in the loss of his life. His self-sacrifice is worthy
of the best and highest traditions of the British Officer, and will help in no
small degree in maintaining the prestige of our race in the Baltic Provinces.
By his death the British Mission loses a very gallant and a very valuable
Officer. T. V. Delahaye, Major, General Staff.
Awarded the Military Cross, January 1919, for personal gallantry and
good work during the operations carried out by the 2nd Army between 28th
September 1918 and 10th October 1918. On the morning of the 1st
October 1918 an attack was delivered by the Brigade on the south slope
of Hill 41, Vifwegen. Owing to mist and the strong opposition of the
enemy, by which the Commanding Officer of the attacking battalion was
killed, the situation was obscure. Captain Craig carried out extensive
reconnaissances of the front under heavy machine-gun fire, and by the
intelligence which he obtained it was possible to reorganise the front and to
make dispositions to deal with a serious situation on the right flank.
The work of this Officer has at all times been thorough and his energy
indefatigable.
Decorated by General Yudenich with the Order of St. Stanislas, Second
Class, with Swords.
Mentioned in Sir R. C. B. Haking's Despatches of 3rd February 1920.

The Military Cross awarded to T/2nd Lieut. David Anderson, M.G.C., 24th
Oct. 1917. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in an attack near
Ypres on 28th September 1917. He led his men over a long stretch of open
country through an enemy barrage and under fire from snipers. On arriving
at his appointed position he found it unsuitable,' and at once moved farther for-
ward, and got his guns quickly into action, inflicting heavj' casualties on the
enemy, and assisting in breaking up an enemy counter-attack.
A Bar to the Mihtary Cross awarded, 30th Nov. 1918, to T/Lieut. David
Anderson, M.C, 23rd Bn. M.G.C. , for conspicuous gallantry and devotion to
duty during the forcing of a passage across the Monticano River on the 29th
October 1918.
Though the northern bank was very strongly held by machine-guns, which
were sweeping the southern bank, he got his guns into action, working one of
the guns himself. Under cover of these guns the river was forced. Later in
the day he gave the greatest assistance in covering the left flank of a battalion
when a counter-attack threatened, and the whole situation was dangerous.
Throughout the operations he set a very fine example to his section and the
men responded to it.

Oirbcry, M.C, <itth 13y., .Jth Bde., Royal Field Artillery.
On "the ><th Oct. 1917, north-east of Triangle Farm, St. Julien, Poelcappelle,
he stayed with three badly wounded men, dressing them in the open under
heavy fire, until assistance was brought. On the early morning of the Hth
October 1917 he led out his men, and advanced half a mile under heavy gas
shell and H.E. barrage to conmience offensive operations. He was ready in
action at zero hour. He had been ordered overnight to withdraw his men to a
place of safety.
During the operations north-east of Ypres, from the .5th to the 1.5th October
1917, he set a splendid example to all ranks. His batterj- was advanced to a
position in full view of the enemy (with open sights) and subjected to constant
shell-fire. suflTering a number of casualties. Although evidently suffering
extreme fatigue, he never spared himself in his efTort.s to save his officers and
men. His battery had six guns in action at their new position on the 12th
October 1917, and carried up 7000 rounds.
It is impossible to estimate the effect tliese specific acts of gallantry had on
all ranks.

The Military Cross was awarded, 1st January 1918, to Captain F. C. Green,
for personal gallantry and devotion to duty. During the time that Captain Green
was with the 31st Division it took part in several small offensive operations, and
in the great defensive operations to check the German advance on Amiens and
subsequently in their advance through Bailleul, for which the Division was
specially mentioned twice by the Field-Marshal. During these very trying
times Captain Green never spared himself, and behaved with great gallantry,
freely risking his life in his efforts to obtain information about the enemy's
intentions. On more than one occasion he exposed himself to very great
danger in examining prisoners, immediately on their capture, moving up close
to the firing-line during these attacks, thereby obtaining the most important
information, which contributed to the success of the Division in staying the
enemy's advance.
* Greene, Herbert, 1915, M.C. with Bar. Lieut., R.G.A. y^
Awarded the Military Cross for conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty.
He accompanied a raiding party, having volunteered to act as guide. When
the officer in charge fell into a lake, he took command and led the party to its
objective. Finding this unoccupied, he pushed on to some dug-outs, which he
thoroughly bombed, and shot one of the enemy himself. He was slightly
wounded in the head during the operations, but continued to direct the party.
{24th Sept. 1918.)
A Bar to the Military Cross awarded to Lieut. Herbert Greene, M.C, 154th
Siege By., R.G.A.
For gallantry and devotion to duty. At Bergwick, at about 16.30 5/11/18,
this Officer was in charge of a column of the battery, guns being drawn by
caterpillars. The enemy put down a burst shell, getting a direct hit on one of
the caterpillars, setting it alight. This Officer took charge of the situation, got
the remaining caterpillars out of danger, helped to uncouple the gun pieces
from the burning caterpillar, and assisted by a sergeant and theidrivers he got
them clear. His coolness and energy, coupled with a strong sense of duty,
saved a situation which might have become very dangerous. The enemy
continued shelling throughout the proceedings.

attack, when the storming battalions were held up by very heavy machine-gun fire
and seemed likely to retire, Captain Lynn led forward his company, steadied the
front line, and then reorganised the mixed companies for a farther advance.
This he led in person, and his splendid courage set an example which resulted
in important positions being captured. His untiring efforts and command of
the situation were of incalculable value in the work of consolidation, and his
coolness and bravery in a dangerous position heartened his men to put forth
their utmost efforts. (7th March 1918.)

his efforts to organise means of evacuation under most diflicult circum-
stances with a rapidly advancing enemy. By his energy and efficiency he
has at all times rendered the most valuable serNace.

For gallantry and good service as Adjutant of the battalion during the
period under review. His work throughout has been of a high order, more
especially during active operations with the X. French Army. During
this period the battalion was constantly on the move, and on two occasions
had to be ready for battle at very short notice. He issued orders with
great clearness and promptness throughout the period, did not spare
himself, but showed untiring energy. On one occasion the successful forming
up of two companies for battle, following a relief in an area itself gained,
was largely due to his personal supervision under shell fire. On a second
occasion, during a relief of the French, heavy shelling on the road amongst
transport and troops of ingoing and outgoing units caused casualties and
much confusion. It was in a large measure due to Captain Pride's super-
vision that the wounded were removed promptly and order restored. He
was working throughout under heavy shell fire. He has proved himself
an Officer possessed of capabilities of a high order, much resource, and one
whose example under fire inspires confidence in all ranks. His work has
been of the greatest value to the battalion and to the brigade.

This officer took over the duties of D.A.D.M.S. after the occupant of
the post had been severely wounded on the 8th September 1916. He
continued to act in this capacity during the remainder of the period the
Division was in action on the Somme {i.e. till 10th October 1916). The
way in which he grasped the details of his duties in ^pite of having little
training could not but evoke admiration, and his constant supervision of
all advanced posts was of material assistance in the evacuation of the
wounded. One cannot speak too highly of the courage and ability this
Officer displayed throughout the whole period.

finding no field of fire, he advanced again on his own initiative and covered
the retirement of the infantry as long as it was necessary. (26th July

This OHicor acted as Bricjadc Commatnler durinfj the Somme operations
from 14tJi to 2'A\\ Septcinlxr lUKi. He showed an excellent prasp of the
situation at all times, and his pluck and gallantry in taking the batteries
into and out of a very difficult position just south of the Morval, where
they suffered very heavy casualties, was beyond all praise. Under these
circumstances he carried out his duties most efficiently and zealously.

On 11th October 1918 this X.C.O. went forward with a sniping section
near Naves. As it was necessary for the Officer in charge to go farther
forward to make a reconnaissance, Cpl. Stephen, after assisting in laying
out lines of fire and getting the section into action under particularly heavy
shell fire, took charge of the section and handled it in a very eflicient manner.
His personal coolness and bravery set an inspiring examj)Ie to the men
under his charge, and it was largely owing to this N.C.O.'s initiative and
efficiencv that these guns were kept in action under adverse circumstances.
