1940 Fall of France POW's Distinguished Conduct Medal, 1939-1945 Star and BWM to 5380722 Sgt S. Frost Ox & Bucks L.I. several edge bruises, otherwise good very fine. Stephen Frost's DCM was announced in the London Gazette dated 25th October 1945. He was taken Prisoner of War during the retreat to Dunkirk, possibly in the same action for which he was awarded the DCM, and interned in Stalag 344 in Lambinowice, Poland. It is unclear which battalion he was with. The 1st Bn were heavily involved in the Battle of Ypres-Comines Canal 26-28 May and suffered 300 casualties. The 4th Bn were encircled and overwhelmed at Watou. The 1st Bucks Bn (Ox & Bucks) made a heroic stand at Hazebrouck against the 8th Panzer Division 27/28th May being eventually overwhelmed and 336 men being taken POW. It is likely the DCM was for 1 of these 3 actions.

Over a period of several days during operations against the Japanese near INDIN L/Cpl Brown conducted himself with great gallantry on a number of occasions.<\t><\n>On 3 Apr 1943 the enemy succeeded in occupying a series of hills covering the road north on INDIN and blew the only bridge over the chang. As communication with FORCE HQ had been cut, L/Cpl Brown in company with another NCO volunteered to drive his carrier over the bullet swept road in order to get through to HQ. His carrier came under heavy and accurate MG fire and shelling almost immediately, but L/Cpl Brown drove on, reconnoitred the damaged bridge and continued to drive across a very exposed stretch of open ground until he found an alternative crossing for vehicles. He then crossed the chang and drove on to FORCE HQ.<\n>On his return he found that two ambulances full of severly wounded men were awaiting evacuation. Again L/Cpl Brown volunteered to take his carrier as escort to the ambulances. Once more he ran the gauntlet of enemy fire and safely brought his convoy to the M.D.S. On two more occasions after this L/Cpl Brown repeated this feat and by his great coolness and supreme disregard of personal danger succeeded in getting all the ambulances through. On more than one occasion he stopped his carrier to take bogged vehicles in tow when under heavy fire. <\t><\n>L/Cpl Brown's skill, coolness and unselfish devotion to duty set a most inspiring example to all around him. Sold with MM box of issue and Buckingham Palace letter of regret, from Flint. (See photo) (R) £1500
