Award SAS veteran Sergeant Talaiasi Labalaba the Victoria Cross

Additional Information

Sergeant Talaiasi Labalaba was killed in the 1972 Battle of Mirbat in Oman, in which nine British SAS soldiers defied overwhelming odds to hold off 400 communist rebels.

For over an hour, the Fijian single-handedly manned a 25-pounder field gun, which normally required a crew of four, and he continued to fire it even after being wounded
