No 8000 Sgt. William
MERRIFIELD Victoria Cross Military Medal
4th Canadian Infantry Battalion
Date of Award Oct. 1, 1918
Passed to his reward Aug. 8, 1943
"For most conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty during the attack near
Abancourt on the 1st, October 1918 when his men were held up by an
intense fire from two machine gun emplacements. He attacked them both
single-handed. Dashing from shell-hole to shell-hole. He killed the
occupants of the first post, and although wounded, continued to attack
the second post and with a bomb killed the occupants. He refused to be
evacuated and led his platoon again until severely wounded.
Sgt. MERRIFIELD has served with exceptional distinction on many former
occasions and throughout the action of the 1st, October showed the
highest qualities of valour and leadership."
