Flightpath Posted February 13, 2018 Share #26 Posted February 13, 2018 Just a note about Private Brownell in the photo.... did you notice that he has two bayonets, one on his musket and one in the scabbard. He received the MoH for killing one person, after he requested it three times..... strange eh! Cant see a soldier requesting being awarded the MoH to himself these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
