found to be dead, was brought back. In performing
this duty Corporal Dunlea displayed the utmost
gallantry, and continued throughout the operation to
give a splendid example to the men under his command.
The Military Medal
No. 71387 Private Robert Armour, 35th Battalion.
From 28th September to 2nd October, 1943, this
man acted as Company Runner during the operations
at Timbala Bay in Vella Lavella. By his determination
and courage under fire he was successful in bringing
back information of the greatest importance. On one
occasion, when unable to break through the enemy lines,
he swam out to sea and round the enemy’s flank, again
under fire from enemy positions ashore, and, although
practically exhausted, succeeded in delivering his report.
His courage and determination were an example to his
fellow soldiers.
No. 515123 Private Alfred McCullough, 37th Battalion.
During landing operations at Warambari Bay in
Vella Lavella on the 5th October, 1943, Private McCul-
lough was wounded in both hands and in the leg by
an enemy L.M.G. In spite of this he continued to
fight at close quarters, picking up and returning a
Japanese grenade which had landed near him. The
grenade killed one of the enemy. His courage and
determination were an inspiration to the remainder of
the platoon and contributed largely to the final
destruction of the enemy in that particular locality.
