On the afternoon of April 26th 1915, during the second battle of Ypres, the Northumberland Infantry Brigade advanced against St Julien, and for a time occupied the southern part of the village. The brigade eventually occupied a line a short way to the south, and it was driven back was largely due to the use of poison gas by the Germans. During the attack, Privates C. Martin, and G. Burrell, of the 7th Battalion Northumberland Fusiliers (T.F.) carried up a box of ammunition to the firing line, across open ground and under a heavy fire. The two men advanced entirely unsupported and were cheered by their comrades for their bravery. They were both awarded the D.C.M. for conspicuous gallantry.

On Creeping into the enemys fire line trenches in the attack near Hooge, on June 16th 1915, Lance-Corporal Joynson, of the 1st battalion Northumberland Fusiliers, met a British officer who was trying to find men for a bombing party. Going together along a communication trench. They came across one of the Liverpool Scottish-a Territorial battalion-who was also looking for bombers to drive the enemy out of a trench, part of which the Liverpool Scottish had already captured. Joynson at once offered to drive the Germans on, and on coming face-to-face with them; he bombed them so effectively that they fell back in disorder to the end of their trench. Later on, Lance Corpral (now Corporal) Joynson rendered valuable service to the Royal Irish Rifles, and was awarded the D.C.M. for conspicuous gallantry.
