Awarded for the attack on El Jib by the 1/5th Battalion, Somerset Light Infantry and the 2/3rd Gurkhas on 23 November 1917, during the battle of Jerusalem, as described in the regimental history of Third Gurkhas: ‘The 23rd November was again fine and clear. There was no sound of firing. At dawn the C.O. and adjutant climbed a small hill to the left to receive final orders for the attack and to have the objectives pointed out. Here it was learnt that the Wilts would take no part in the attack, which was to be carried out by the Somersets, whose objective was El Jib, followed by the 2/3rd whose mission was Bir Nebala. From the hill from which the reconnaissance was made, a wide plain stretched eastwards for some 2,500 yards. At the far end the ground rose, first gently then steeply, to a ridge some 300 feet high, on which were situated the villages of El Jib on the left and Bir Nebala about half a mile to its right. The plain was bounded on the left by the slopes leading down from Beit Izza, then held by the 52nd Division. At about half-way these slopes ceased and the plain was more open to the left. Some low hills to the left of El Jib were said to be held by hostile machine guns. These were fairly distant from the line of advance. On the right the plain was bounded by the ridge which led up to and beyond Nebi Samwil, and was held by our troops. The enemy were said to be holding El Jib and Nebala in no great force. The Somersets were ordered to lead and they began their advance at 7.30. The 2/3rd followed, moving slightly to the right of the Somersets’ line of direction. When the attackers were clear of the hills the enemy opened fire with shrapnel and H.E. Then came a regular barrage from both field guns and howitzers. The pressing forward of the battalion under this trying shell fire was magnificent, the men moving as steadily as if on parade. Very shortly many began to drop and as soon as the leading wave got beyond Nebi Samwil, a fury of machine-gun fire broke out from the western slope of the ridge, which was supposed to be in our possession. At the same time the fire from the left redoubled in volume. The two battalions were thus enfiladed from both flanks. In addition, the Turks, lining the terraced fields of El Jib, opened a heavy frontal fire. The first wave simply withered away, a few survivors finding what cover they could behind rocks, of which there were fortunately a goodly number scattered about. As each succeeding wave reached this bullet-swept area, the same thing happened, and thus the attack died away within 700 yards of its objective. One of the first of our casualties was Capt. Lemarchand, who was commanding the leading company. He was hit in the stomach and very badly wounded. The adjutant, Lieut. Turner, was hit in the thigh, just as battalion headquarters reached the fatal zone. Jemadar Chame Thapa was killed, and Jemadar Tilbir Thapa severely wounded. The “other ranks” also suffered heavy losses. The Somersets fared no better. A few of their men were reported to have reached the lower slopes of El Jib, but they never came back. The survivors of both battalions remained pinned to the ground all day. The 2/3rd Lewis gunners made gallant efforts to reply to the enemy’s fire, but all attempts were immediately met by concentrated fire in return, from numerous guns which could not be located. The Lewis gunners, indeed, soon headed the list of casualties. Any movement at once drew a storm of bullets, nor did the guns cease to shell the attackers the whole day. Without artillery support the latter were helpless. The havildar major, Man Sing Mal, who had gallantly bandaged Lieut. Turner and other wounded men, was himself hit, leaving the C.O., with some runners and signallers, as sole representatives of the headquarters section. Search was made for the field telephone. which the Somersets had been laying during the advance, but not until the evening was it discovered, far behind. A situation report was therefore sent to the brigade by runner. This gallant runner, Rifleman Aniram Chattri, returned safely with a message from 233rd Brigade headquarters, saying that, as the 1/5th Somersets could not advance on El Jib owing to the precipitous slopes, the 1/5th Devons were being pushed up to attack El Jib direct. One company 1/4th Wilts was being sent to support the 2/3rd in its attack on Nebala after El Jib had fallen. The message added that the attack by the 1/5th Devons would clear up the situation, and after the fall of El Jib the G.O.C. would like to speak to the C.O. on the telephone. From this it was most apparent that the brigade had not in the least grasped the seriousness of the situation. The attention of all was now drawn to the advance of the 1/5th Devons in their attack on El Jib. As all watched them advancing towards the forward position held, their men were so steady and their lines so straight that it seemed almost as if they might possibly gain their objective. Then they came under the artillery barrage, followed by that terrible enfilade machine-gun fire. Every Lewis gunner did his best to keep down the enemy’s fire, but it was still impossible to locate those guns. They roared a hail of bullets on the Devons and made them swing to the left and seek cover. Human effort could do no more, still it was a most gallant attempt. There was nothing for it but to sit tight and wait for darkness. The hours dragged on and the day seemed unending. At last, at 4 p.m., the 233rd Brigade appeared to have realised the situation, for a message for the 2/3rd came, saying: “You, 1/5th Somersets and 1/5th Devons on the West of El Jib, are held up by enfilade M.G.s on Nebi Samwil. Fire of mountain battery has been directed on these, and division has been told that battalions cannot move backwards or forwards until these M.G.s are driven out by an attack down Nebi Samwil slopes. Please take such cover in your present position as you can, and remain there.” No attack was made, however, down the slopes of Nebi Samwil, nor did the mountain battery open fire. At dusk the brigade sent orders for a retirement, “covered by the Gurkhas”. This was a great relief. The Wilts Company was deployed to secure the left flank and the Somersets and Devons then withdrew. By 10.30 p.m. the last of the wounded that could be found had been sent back, and the battalion returned to the same bivouac as on the previous night. In this action before El Jib the fighting strength of the battalion was not more than 350 of all ranks. Of these the losses were, Jemadar Chame Thapa and ten Gurkha ranks killed, while Capt. Lemarchand, Lieut. Turner, Jemadar Tilbir Thapa and sixty-three Gurkha ranks were wounded.’
