Hello to all on the list,

I am new to this site and am after some advice please.

My Grandfathers uncle,James William Brooks, was a CSM in the 11th Rifle
Brigade.He didn't die during the war - he died at home in 1928. He did however
receive the DCM.I don't know when or for what reason as the London Gazette is
not letting me access the site after the initial results page.Putting in a
search for J Brooks comes up with one result on 24 July 1917.

Where else would I be able to find his entry for the DCM,and where could I
find more information on both the 11th Rifle Brigade and CSM's.

Thanks very much,

Lou
