There is a photo within The History of War magazine, issue 013, which includes a photograph of Corporal Schiess VC, taken from The Imperial War Museum website.
Have I got it totally wrong, I didn't think any photos existed of him? link below http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/205071734 Best regards, Colin Fielding |

Alan,
We've actually covered that self-same photograph on a previous post. http://www.rorkesdriftvc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=780&highlight=alan+hill The officer in the helmet is indeed a Victoria Cross man, but he is Alan Richard Hill, a Laing's Nek V.C. Good to see the I.W.M. are on the ball! John Y. |
