On 29 September 1918 Ernest Adam Anderson performed heroics which led to him being granted a Military Medal. The citation for his medal reads as follows: For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. At Bon Avid ridge on 29 September 1918, during the attack this man was a company runner and he repeatedly carried messages over machine gun swept ground and very high shellfire. Throughout the whole day and evening when all the company runners had become causalities he carried on and delivered all his messages. His devotion to duty helped tremendously in a very difficult situation.
