The Military Medal

Hi

Many air crew had the Military Medal. Anyone have ideas if an concise list of winners, possibly by Commonwealth Country was ever published?

Oddly enough, there are no Canadian aircrew MM winners listed in Dodds.
There is one Canadian DCM (Sgt.Roy Campbell,65 Sqn.) and one DFM (Cpl.Richard Brock).
2Lt.H.L.Edwards,DFC,MM, 20 Sqn., a 21 victory observer, apparently won his MM while with the Canadian army before transferring to the RAF.

This is from the AWM website. All from the AFC.

This would not include men who were awarded the MM in the AIF who transferred to the AFC

Andrew

Aeroplane of 20 January 1917 lists awards to RFC members in 1916 - the tally for DCM is 41 awards, and for MM is 40.

Aeroplane of 9 January 1918 lists awards to RFC personnel in 1917 - 32 DCM and 78 MM awards.

Aeroplane of 8 January 1919 lists awards to RFC personnel in 1918 - one Bar to DCM, 13 DCMs, one Bar to MM, 51 MMs plus four MMs to Australian Flying Corps personnel.

The fact that two Australian recipients are not listed (Campell and Brown) suggests the lists may not be as complete as one would wish (the Collins award was 1919 so would not appear). However, these lists would be a good start for anyone interested in the subject.
