Military Medal 'At LONGATTE on 20th March, 1917, Trooper MANCE whilst acting as horseholder to a patrol showed great courage in holding 4 horses under heavy shell fire until his comrades could return and get away with the information gained. most of the shells burst near the horses, some of them being wounded. The horses were badly frightened and dragged Trooper MANCE for a considerable distance in their endeavour to stampede, and had it not been for his tenacity in sticking to them, the patrol would probably not have got away.'
