Since its inception in 1855, the Victoria Cross has been awarded to just 1355 people in the British armed forces.
Only 3 men have ever achieved the honour of being awarded the VC twice.
This is the story of the very first of them: Arthur Martin-Leake.
Not only does he have the unique distinction of being the first man to receive the Victoria Cross twice, but he is also the only one of the three double-VC holders to earn his two medals in two separate wars.

My name is Chris Green and I love to share stories from British history. Not just because they are interesting but because, good or bad, they have shaped the world we live in today.
History should not be stuffy or a long list of dates or kings & queens.
So rather than lectures or Youtube animations, I tell stories that bring the past to life.
My aim is to be chat as if I were having a coffee or meal with you. Jean in Maryland, USA recently wrote: "Chris, is the history teacher I wish I had at school!"
Just for the record, I do have a history degree in Medieval & Modern history from the University of Birmingham.
