Corporal Meekosha, assisted by Privates Johnson, Sayers and Wilkinson, digging out men who had been buried in their trench by shellfire.

On November 19th 1915, Corporal Samuel Meekosha, of the 1/6th Battalion, West Yorkshire Regiment (Territorial force) was with a platoon of about twenty non commissioned officers and men, who were holding an isolated trench near the Yser. During a very heavy bombardment by the been either killed or wounded, Corporal Meekosha at once took command and sent a runner for assistance. No less than ten more big shells fell within twenty yards of him, but with the assistance of Privates Johnson, Sayers and Wilkinson, of the battalion, who most stoutly assisted him throughout, he continued to dig out the buried men in full view of the enemy. At last four men were saved and for his most conspicuous bravery Corporal Meekosha was awarded the V.C. while Privateers Johnson, Sayers and Wilkinson received the D.C.M.
