Victoria Cross & Forum

Latest updates

There's not a lot happening the "VC world" at the moment, so I have had time to update many of the listings for each man. It will take a while to do the lot, so please bear with me.

Currently Hancocks of London are making copies of the VC and can be ordered from them via e-mail. It'll cost you around £390 including postage!

Spinks, the auction house in London, are hosting 50 VC's from the Lord Ashcroft collection in April. Visit the Spinks website for more info.

Welcome

Those of you who have been here before, welcome back. Those that haven't, you've missed several versions of the "Eviltaxman" pages!! I've been interested in the Victoria Cross for sometime, but noticed that the best VC site around had closed. So I'm going to attempt to list as many pages as I can with VC information. It will take a while, but please keep coming back.

Forum

This site has hosted a forum for all those that are interested in the Victoria Cross. Come on in and add any comments on VCs or their actions, from any period over the last 150+ years.

What's new?

My aim for this site is to have an entry for each man that has received the VC. As time goes on, I'm hoping to have photos of the man, his headstone and memorials and other general bits of information.

Currently the basic info is taken from "The Register Of The Victoria Cross" by This England. Unfortunately, if you know the book, there are a few mistakes. Some info been supplied by contacts in the "VC World" and by donations. If you see any errors and know the correct name, date, location etc, please feel free to drop me a line.

A VC, front & back
