While working on another book, which listed the honors by name, do you think it is possible that the C.M.G. I asked about could be Companion of Saint Michael and Saint George? In the listings for names, from this book it has: 200239 C.S.M. T. G. Milne I know the number is the persons military number, his surname is Milne, and T.G. are his initials. Do you know what C.S.M. I also have others with R.S.M. These men received the Distinguished Conduct Medal if that makes a difference.
