Don't get me wrong, I'm not disputing the chap's gallantry, but there's nothing that screams 'Victoria Cross' to me in this. He came out from cover to throw a grenade and got shot. That's extremely laudable, but surely Victoria Crosses require a bit more than that?

Compare it with this chap, for instance. Fvcker fought off 30 Taliban single-handed and only got the Gallantry Medal. That seems unfair.
