Heroes of Boer War Three British officers cited for daring deeds in South Africa
Three incidents spotlight heroism in the South African war as reported by the London Times. Major Hunter-Weston led ten men through enemy lines to cut telegraph ties and blow railwayworks north of a Free State capital. Lieutenant Popham of the Sherwood Foresters hauled dynamite from a bridge and returned to safety under fire. Captain Grant and Captain Pennell of the Derbyshires completed a daring bridge defense and rescue at Targal while the Victoria Cross awarded to Pennell marked his courage on the frontier.
