EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the moment of triumph and heroism as Admiral James Raby, Commander Raby R.N., Boatswain's Mate Henry Curtis, and Captain John Taylor of the forecastle receive the Victoria Cross for their extraordinary bravery during the assault on Sebastopol on June 18, 1855, during the Crimean War. The Victoria Cross is the highest military decoration awarded for valor in the face of the enemy in the British military. In this daring rescue, the trio bravely crossed an open space under heavy enemy fire to save a wounded soldier of the 57th Regiment, who had been shot through both legs. The soldier's name is not recorded in the photograph, but his debt of gratitude to these three heroes is immeasurable. Admiral Raby, wearing his full uniform with the Victoria Cross medal pinned to his chest, stands proudly between Boatswain's Mate Henry Curtis and Captain John Taylor. Curtis and Taylor, both wearing their own Victoria Cross medals, gaze intently at the camera with a sense of pride and accomplishment. The Crimean War, which lasted from 1853 to 1856, was a significant conflict in British history, and the heroic actions of Admiral Raby, Curtis, and Taylor serve as a testament to the bravery and selflessness of the British military during this time. Their actions on that fateful day in June 1855 demonstrate the daring and unwavering commitment to saving a fellow soldier's life, even in the face of extreme danger.
