For Gallantry: Medals Expert Discusses the George Cross | TEA & MEDALS
The George Cross is on par with the Victoria Cross in the table of Gallantry, so how do they differ? The answer may not be as straightforward as you think.
In this bonus episode of Tea & Medals, medal expert and military historian Mark Smith guides Darren through the subtle differences between these top tier awards, and provides the context to its introduction by King George VI in 1940.
One of the 15 living recipients of the George Cross, Maj Pete Norton, featured in Episode 4 of this series. Maj Norton, an Ammunition Technical Officer (ATO) with the British Army, was seriously injured by an Improvised Explosive Device in Baghdad.
