How Private Ross Tollerton Won His VC by Allen Stewart.  \u003cp\u003e On 13th September 1914, the British had forced the passage of the Aisne. The following morning a general advance was begun, but our men soon came under a very heavy shell and machine-gun fire, and Captain Matheson of the Cameron Highlanders, fell severely wounded. Private Tollerton lifted the wounded officer onto his back and carried him to an adjoining cornfield, where he laid him down under cover of a small cornstack. After rejoining his comrades he was hit in both his right hand and the right temple, but nevertheless, when they received orders to retire he went back to the wounded officer ad remained with him for three days until an opportunity occurred for them both to rejoin the regiment. Private Tollerton received the VC for his splendid gallantry and devotion. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Antique print published c.1918. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Paper size 11 inches x 8.5 inches (28cm x 22cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54134197944653,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWant0134.jpg?v=1781870192","url":"https:\/\/militaryaviationartprints.com\/products\/how-private-ross-tollerton-won-his-vc-by-allan-stewart-p","provider":"Military Aviation Art Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
