Operation Cumbersome Duty

During the initial assault on the key objective Wickham was one of the first to breach the enemy line and get amongst the enemy positions, splitting the fire and letting focus off the rearward elements who were struggling to manoeuvre. Working alongside the rifle teams Wickham helped clear the primary building, sustaining injuries in that brief and intense action.

Cpl de Bourgh took us for a lovely jaunt across his many acres of land, and taking the air was most bracing, I must say! When those rascals of FIDDLER chanced upon us, we felt it only fair to return the favour by dropping by with a calling card of our own, under the fine and august leadership of this man and following his clear and decisive instructions. Oft called upon to demonstrate the marvellous leadership qualities born to him by blood when the officer and sergeant were temporarily indisposed, Cpl de Bourgh once again demonstrated why he is one of the most eligible gentlemen in the entire county.

Providing essential leadership, initiative and momentum at key moments of the operation. Whilst underfire and injured Bourgh kept the withdrawal from the primary objective moving, coordinating the covering of both sections and repelling an enemy thrust at their flanks during the withdrawal.

To All Whom These Presents Shall Come
Greetings,
It is with the utmost respect and gratitude that I, Pte Dashwood, do hereby bring to light the extraordinary service rendered by Private Ferrars of The United Nations PRotection Force Against Radical Terror, in her capacity as a medical attendant, and by her exemplary conduct in the line of duty.
Private Ferrars, in the performance of her sacred duty, has demonstrated a skill and fortitude beyond the measure of ordinary expectation. Upon the recent occasion of the skirmish at the Sawmill, where many of our brave troops were grievously wounded, it was this young woman—without hesitation, without regard for the perilous nature of the situation—who, amidst the smoke and tumult, did administer her knowledge with such skill and alacrity as to have assured the lives of many of our comrades, and rendered comfort to those in their final moments.
Her proficiency in the art of healing, honed by considerable study and dedication, has been a beacon of hope amidst the suffering and chaos of battle. Her hands have been steady in their ministrations, whether she applied the tourniquet to the limb of a soldier or wielded the scalpel with a surgeon’s precision. Her compassion, though never ostentatious, has been equally remarkable, as she did tend to each with equal care, regardless of rank or station. In so doing, she has embodied the finest qualities of duty, humility, and humanity.
Furthermore, it is to be noted that, despite the unceasing nature of the conflict, Private Ferrars maintained a spirit of unflagging resolve, working tirelessly through the long hours of night and day to ensure that no soldier went without the ministrations their condition required. By her diligence, she earned the trust and admiration of her fellow soldiers, and indeed, of all who were privileged to witness her care.
For these reasons, and for her unswerving dedication to her duty, I do, with great pleasure, recommend Private Ferrars to be awarded a suitable commendation, in recognition of her exceptional service and unexampled skill in the field of medicine. May her noble example inspire all who serve alongside her, and may her conduct stand as a testament to the virtues we hold most dear in this regiment.
Given under my hand this day of November, in the year of our Lord 2024,
Pte Dashwood
The United Nations PRotection Force Against Radical Terror
