Paul
Ward Spencer Bulman
Sunday
14th April 1918: Rev. Thomas Bulman, the Vicar of St. Paul’s
Luton, has received the following letter from the commanding officer of his
son, Paul Ward Spencer Bulman:
“It is with the greatest
possible pleasure I write to inform you that yesterday the great news came
through that your son Paul has been awarded a bar to his Military Cross. He has
more than earned it by splendid work, especially during the recent operations.
My heartiest congratulations to you and yours.”
This means that within the
last six months Captain Bulman has been mentioned in dispatches, awarded the
Military Cross, promoted to Captain, and has now been awarded a bar to add to
the Military Cross. Captain Bulman is serving in France with the Royal Air
Force as Flight Commander of a squadron.
