The London Regiment, City of London Battalions by Richard Caton Woodville 		During the British advance at Festubert on May 16th 1915, one of the men fell into a watercourse and the nature of its banks prevented him from getting out by him. Private A. E. Day of the 7th London Regiment, at once went to help of his comrade and, after helping him out, brought him into safety under heavy shellfire. For his gallant conduct Day was awarded the D.C.M.
Private Day Helping A Comrade Out Of A Watercourse At Festubert Under Heavy Fire.		 On reaching the German trenches, on the occasion of the British attack at Rouges Bancs on May 9th 1915, the bombing party drove the enemy down the trench for about one hundred yards. They ran short of bombs however, and Acting Sergeant Pike of the 1/13th Battalion The London Regiment, called for a volunteer to fetch a fresh supply from the British lines. Three men mounted the parapet together, but they dropped, riddled with machine gun bullets. Undismayed by their fate, acting Sergeant Pike gallantry climbed out of the trench and crossed under heavy shell fire to the British lines, 250 yards away. He returned with two sacks of bombs and grenades, and a promise from an officer of the 2nd Scottish Rifles that a machine gun would be sent to his assistance. For his conspicuous gallantry and ability, Acting Sergeant (now Sergeant) Pike was awarded the D.C.M.
