Is that meant to be Fusilier Jefferson VC ? edit: looked at larger version. so it is. could do with some captions old chum.
Yes indeed it is Frank Jefferson VC....... "On 16 May 1944, during an attack on the Gustav Line, Monye Cassino, the leading company of Fusilier Jefferson's battalion had to dig in without protection. The enemy counter-attacked opening fire at short range, and Fusilier Jefferson on his own initiative seized a PIAT gun and, running forward under a hail of bullets, fired on the leading tank. It burst into flames and its crew were killed. The fusilier then reloaded and went towards the second tank which withdrew before he could get within range. By this time, British tanks had arrived and the enemy counter-attack was smashed."
