By descent through the family.

The first three recipients were siblings, born to George and Mary Denning Struthers in Staines and in Kensington. Kenneth was the eldest boy (27 in 1914) and entered France with the London Scottish 01/07/1916. He was killed in action three months later at the Battle of Le Transloy (part of the larger Battle of the Somme), when his battalion attacked and captured a number of German gun pits on the 7th of October. His elder sister Hilda and younger brother Leslie (a Quaker) both went to the Italian front to serve as medical volunteers and during the Second World War Leslie was commissioned 2nd Lieutenant in the Intelligence Corps in November 1940. Ian Duncan Struthers was born in Argentina in 1915 and began his career as a clapper boy at Sound City in 1933. He accompanied the Allied forces in North Africa, Sicily, Italy and in the liberation of Northern Europe, filming many momentous occasions including the liberation of Caen and Charles De Gaulle's entry into Paris. He appeared in the 1943 documentary 'Cameramen at War'.
