The Story of Gurkha VCs by Maurice Biggs
The first VC awarded to a Gurkha was as a result of the "most conspicuous bravery" in 1915 in France during the Great War. In all, the Gurkha Brigade has won a total of 26 Victoria Crosses, each with a unique tale of courage and devotion beyond the call of duty. This is their story.
