My grandfather

My mother's father, Kenneth Foott, served in the 2nd World War leading a tank platoon of the North Irish Horse. For his service he was awarded the Military Cross. Until today, neither my mother or I knew anything about the action for which he was awarded the medal. Today I saw an scanned image of the citation
