Update on Captain Gallaugher I posted this about him 5 days ago - Information regarding Captain Henry Gallagher – Recommended for Victoria Cross.
He was recommended for a Victoria Cross but did not receive it as the 36th Division had received it’s quota. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Order.
Link with his photograph and his details, and photograph of his grave. http://www.inniskillingsmuseum.com/captain-henry-gallaugher-dso/
Did not know they had quotas for Victoria Crosses.
