Date inconsistency

[edit]

The article states that he entered service the 14th of june 1914. Yet, the citation says the MoH was awarded for actions the 21st and 22nd of april, 1914. Did he get the MoH for actions he did before he joined the military? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fransw (talkcontribs) 17:31, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, the June 1914 date is when he was issued the medal. I've formatted the citation and added some text to make things clearer. — jwillbur 18:09, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
