I am close to completing a list of aerial-related DSO awards. However, in a 1928 British "Who's Who in Aviation" are a number of people who, though in air circles at that time, may have won their DSO in previous "ground-pounder" incarnations. Can anyone shed light on the circumstances by which the following would have earned this award and approximately when:

BURNETT, Charles Kenyon
EDWARDS, Patrick Harrington
GROVES, Percy Robert Clifford
LEFROY, Hugh Percival Thomson (possibly for wireless reserach rather than combat)
MALTBY, Paul Copeland
MILLER, Albert Basil
PEIRSE, Richard Edmund
RHODES, John Phillips
RIDLEY, Charles Alward (believed for escape exploits)
TOMKINSON, Edward Launcelot
VYVYAN, Vyell
