South Bourke and Mornington Journal<\/strong> (16th January 1919)<\/p>\n “Signaller JR Adamson, son of Mr J Adamson, J.P. of Beaconsfield has been awarded the Military Medal for conspicuous gallantry at Bellicourt. Sig Adamson is identical with the left hand bowler of the Berwick team in pre-war days, a good sport and fine cricketer. He left in November, 1915, with the 29th Battalion, and has passed through every stunt that the 29th were in, unscathed. He has two other brothers on active service also – Bob, in the 13th LH, and Jack in the Army Medical. Truly a patriotic family.”<\/em><\/p>\n [vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][image_with_animation image_url=”766″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”https:\/\/beaconsfield.org.au\/digitalmemorial\/Poppies”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”left-right” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][heading] ADAMSON James Randle [\/heading][vc_column_text] ORIGINAL AVENUE OF HONOUR NAME PLATE C.1929 Service number 19 James Randle Adamson was awarded the Military Medal for gallantry and devotion to duty during the operations at Bellicourt on 29th September, 1918.
