Thomas Duffy (1805- 23 December 1858) was born in Caulry, Athlone, County Westmeath and won the VC during the Indian Mutiny (1857-1859). On 26 September 1857 at Lucknow, a 24-pounder gun which had been used against the enemy on the previous day was left in an exposed position and all efforts to reach it were unsuccessful, so heavy was the fire maintained on it by the mutineers. Private Duffy, however, who went out with two others, managed to fasten a rope to the gun in such a manner that it could be pulled away and was saved from falling into the hands of the enemy.); © National Army Museum

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the iconic Victoria Cross awarded to Private Thomas Duffy, a brave soldier of the 1st Madras Fusiliers. This historic artifact, made of metal, stands as a testament to his extraordinary courage and gallantry during the Indian Mutiny in 1857. Private Duffy's heroic actions unfolded on September 26th at Lucknow. In the face of relentless enemy fire, he fearlessly ventured out with two comrades to rescue a crucial 24-pounder gun left exposed and vulnerable. Despite numerous failed attempts by others, Private Duffy ingeniously secured a rope around the gun, ensuring its safe retrieval from falling into enemy hands. Born in Caulry, Athlone in County Westmeath, Ireland in 1805, Thomas Duffy's unwavering bravery earned him this prestigious honor before his untimely passing on December 23rd, 1858. This image not only showcases an exceptional act of valor but also serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by ordinary soldiers like Private Duffy during times of conflict.
