Lieutenant Forshaw throwing bombs continuously, Gallipoli, First World War, 1915, (c1920). Territorial Heroism on the Krithia Lines, August 8-9, 1915: how Lieutenant Forshaw, of the 9th Battalion Manchester Regiment, won the Victoria Cross, and saved his corner of the Vineyard. Lieutenant Forshaw smoked incessantly during this ordeal, in order to ignite the fuses of his bombs, which he threw continuously, says the " Gazette", for forty-one hours. William Thomas Forshaw (1890-1943) and his men threw hand grenades with fuses that had to be set alight, during the Battle of Krithia Vineyard on the Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey. Drawn by Philipp Dadd, who was killed on the Western Front in France in 1916. From " The Great World War - A History" Volume IV, edited by Frank A Mumby.
