The following text is a Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) transcription of a Border Regiment soldier of the First World War.
| Name | J. Creighton |
| Rank | Sergeant |
| Number | 21750 |
| Other details | (Silloth) |
| Date published | 15 January 1918 |
| Citation | “For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in a raid. When his platoon was held up by wire and very heavy machine-gun fire, he collected some stray men, forced his way through the wire, and led his party with the greatest dash to success. Afterwards, his mopping-up work and clearing up of the enemy strong points was very effective. He set a fine example to all of courage and good leadership.” |
