Arthur Robert Blore was the only person to receive a double award of the Conspicuous Gallantry Medal. 'London Gazette' 13 Sept 1915 'For services in the Gallipoli Peninsular. The Battalion, having occupied a portion of the enemy's fire trench on the 4th June, was engaged in digging communication trenches to a position in the rear of it, on which they were consolidating the line. The officer being shot, Seaman Blore took charge of a party of 22, who advanced to recover the retirement. He shot two of the crew of a Turkish machine-gun enfilading the trench and kept up a steady fire, checking the enemy who were re-occupying it. He exhibited great bravery and power of leadership on a difficult occasion.'
