<description><![CDATA[Lance Corporal Richard McCarthy, R.A.M.C. attached to 46 RM Commando, was awarded the Military Medal for gallant and distinguished service during operations at Rots and Le Hamel, France. <br />
<b>Recommendation</b><br />
This NCO showed complete disregard for personal safety during the operations on 11 June. His work involved assisting casualties over open ground covered by fire. During the night 11/12 June LCpl McCarthy went forward alone from Rots in order to locate and assist wounded in an area which was constantly under enemy fire.<br />
