There is no greater courage than to risk
ones life in the defence of others.
In the Australian military, this bravery in the face of the enemy is
recognised by the Victoria Cross, and in civilian life and non-combat
military situations it had been the Imperial George Cross until the
introduction of the uniquely Australian Cross of Valour in 1975.
In the Service of Others: For Valour and Gallantry brings together Australias four living Victoria Cross and sole surviving George Cross recipients each of whom is recorded in history for extraordinary acts of valour and gallantry. They come together for the first time to inspire us all to help our wounded servicemen and women.
With the support of our Victoria Cross
and George Cross recipients, all profits from the sale of this limited
edition collection are being donated to Soldier On for their work in
support of todays servicemen and women who have been physically
and mentally wounded in the service of our country.
