Zitat:The Victoria Cross (often abbreviated to VC) is the highest award for gallantry that can be awarded to members of the British and Commonwealth armed forces of any rank in any service and civilians under military command.- George Cross
Zitat:The George Cross is the British decoration corresponding to the Victoria Cross, but awarded for acts not in the face of the enemy. As such, it is the highest honour that can be awarded to a civilian not under military command for bravery in wartime, and for soldiers behind the lines and during peacetime.Ein Britisches Panzerbesatzungsmitglied hat das erst kürzlich bekommen weil er unter Luftangriffen seine Kamaraden gerettet hat, erwähnenswert ist dabei, das es die Amerikaner waren die angegriffen haben -----> friendly fire.
