    Hello,
    I wonder if anyone can help me with a citation for a DCM for the Boer War. If so the recipient is:
    S/Sgt D.C.F. BLISS, CMR, (LG 31 Oct 1902). He was also MID as a Sgt in the same unit (LG 29 July 1902).
    Regards,
    Tim

    I found a DCM to a Sergeant D.P. Bliss, Canadian Rifles, 31 Oct 1902, Lg #27490 Pg6909

    Searching the LAC " Soldiers of the South African War " the only BLISS is #855 Donald Cameron Forster,Bliss

    IT IS HIM !! :lol: I just found a correction.. LG# 27490 PG#6911

    And I think this is his MID ?? LG#27454 Pg#4854, 29 July 1902 misspelled again as D.P Bliss

    Hope this Helps.. Wink

    CHEERS !!!
