Hi again Ian,
many thanks for adding so much detail to your post, sorry for my late reply.
Clearly Archie had a very active war, so it's really pleasing to see he survived the gas attack and enjoyed a long and apparently healthy working and family life for many years afterwards, I'm sure you are rightly proud of him.

I've tried to find some more detail regarding his Military Medal citation, but like you could only find the references in the London Gazette. I see it's not been marked on his Medal Roll Index Card for example.

I wish I could help more, but as you've already discovered it's particularly difficult to find extra detail about the citation for the MM, see https://www.longlongtrail.co.uk/research-award-military-medal-mm/

Thanks for your post, and thanks and respect to Archie.
