The Chronicle Saturday 30 October 1915 page 43
Private Percy Edgar Wraight Millar was killed at Gallipoli about August 7. Private Millar was born in Adelaide 35 years ago and began his military career in the 10th Regiment, S.A. Infantry. He was member of the contingent which represented this State at the opening of the Federal Parliament in Melbourne. Later he took up his residence in the Wimmera District of Victoria, where he was farming when the war broke out. The fact that he was in lucrative employment did not deter him from rejoining the colours. After a period in Broadmeadows he was drafted to the 4th Reinforcements of the 7th Battalion (Victoria) and sailed with that body for the Dardanelles. Letters received by his parents after his arrival were of a cheery nature, and went to show that he and his comrades were prepared to do their 'little bit' for their country. That he should be imbued with the martial spirit was not surprising, for his father, who is a retired warrant officer, is the proud possessor of a 20 years' service medal presented by the King (when he was Duke of York), and his grandfather and great-grandfather were active members of the army. His mother's ancestors were also followers of the flag on the sea. Mr. M.S. Millar's only surviving son, Roy, is serving with the Engineers, and is training in Victoria.

Awarded Military Cross
'Near Bullecourt, France on the night of the 7th May 1917 Lieut Mills displayed great bravery, power of leadership, and devotion to duty. When two of the Officers of the Company were wounded, one in getting to the Front Line and the other in the Line, Lieut Mills who was then the only Officer other that the Company Commander left with the Company, by the use of great initiative and energy carried out the consolidation of his position by digging Strong and Bombing Posts, and by the establishment of Listening Posts, under intense bombardment by the enemy's artillery from his flanks and front. His sector of the trench was repeatedly blown in but with exceptional tenacity and bravery he hung on and by his splendid example and prompt action prevented the enemy from regaining this important position.
On the 8th May when the enemy's artillery fire threatened the destruction of one of his Listening Posts, he, at the risk of his life, dashed across the open under machine gun fire and heavy sniping, and brought in the men of the Foot with only one casualty. He personally carried a wounded and helpless man back to a place of safety. On the barrage lifting he re-established and manned the Post.'
