EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative photograph captures the face of George McKenzie Samson VC, a Scottish hero of the First World War. Born in 1889, Samson distinguished himself with exceptional bravery on the battlefield, earning him the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be bestowed upon British and Commonwealth forces - the Victoria Cross (VC). Samson's heroic actions took place on September 27, 1915, during the Battle of Loos in France. Leading a charge against the enemy, he single-handedly captured a German machine gun post, neutralizing its threat and saving countless lives. His fearless actions under heavy fire were a testament to his courage and leadership. The photograph, taken in 1923, shows Samson in his military uniform, wearing the distinctive insignia of the Victoria Cross on his chest. His intense gaze and determined expression convey the unwavering bravery and resilience of a man who had faced the horrors of war and emerged as a symbol of heroism and valor. George McKenzie Samson's story is an important chapter in the history of the British military and the annals of Scottish bravery. His legacy continues to inspire generations, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by brave men and women in the name of duty and country.
