Officer-Cadet M. H. H. Tolkien has been awarded the George Medal for gallantry when on defence duty during a heavy bombing attack on an R.A.F. station. He is the second son of Professor J. R. R. Tolkien, Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon in the University of Oxford, and was an undergraduate at Trinity College for a year before joining the Army, and was only 191 when he won his medal.
