It is very rare to find a recommendation or citation for foreign
awards. They were usually awarded en bloc for the British/Dominion
military authorities to allocate, subject to the approval of the
awarding country.

This soldier seems to
have been drafted to 17 Battalion
after disbandment of his original 20 Battalion in France in Feb 1918.
17 Bn. went off to North Russia from Glasgow in Oct 1918
(till Sep 1919) as part of 236 Infantry Brigade of the SYREN Force. [Sotonmate GWF]
Russian Commanders were
authorized to award on the spot the
Medal and Cross of St George for bravery, with or without the sanction
of the War Office and a number of British soldiers received
Russian decorations in the field at a unit parade by Russian
commanders, details of which were subsequently published in Ironside's
GHQ Routine Orders. [Damien
