- About a fortnight ago word was received that Lieut. A. G. Melles, of Palmerston, had been awarded the Military Cross. He has since been awarded a Bar to the Cross. A second recognition following so quickly on the heels of the first is not common.Public - Lorraine Mona - Researcher - 8 June 2025 - Feilding Star, Volume XIII, Issue 3304, 28 July 1917, Page 2
