Image title
Lieut J.G. Smyth, V.C, 15th Sikhs. Brigadier Sir John George Smyth, 1st Baronet, VC MC PC (25 October 1893 - 26 April 1983) was a British Indian Army officer and Conservative Member of Parliament. He was a lieutenant in the 15th Ludhiana Sikhs, 3rd (Lahore) Division, Indian Army during the First World War. In June 1915 Smyth was awarded the Victoria Cross, The citation for this award, read: For most conspicuous bravery near Richebourg L'Avoue on 18 May 1915. With a bombing party of 10 men, who voluntarily undertook this duty, he conveyed a supply of 96 bombs to within 20 yards of the enemy's position over exceptionally dangerous ground, after the attempts of two other parties had failed. Lieutenant Smyth succeeded in taking the bombs to the desired position with the aid of two of his men (the other eight having been killed or wounded), and to effect his purpose he had to swim a stream, being exposed the whole time to howitzer, shrapnel, machine-gun and rifle fire'.
