Victoria Cross medal, Havildar Parkash Singh

Parkash Singh fought bravely with the 8th Punjab Regiment, Indian Army during the Second World War. On 6 January 1943 at Donbaik, Mayu Peninsula (Burma) Singh drove his own carrier forward and rescued the crews of two disabled carriers under very heavy fire. Again on 19 January in the same area he rescued two more carriers which had been put out of action by an enemy anti-tank gun. He then went out yet again and brought to safety another disabled carrier containing two wounded men. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkash_Singh
