Sergeant Arthur Frederick Saunders

Sergeant Arthur Frederick Saunders who was the first man in Suffolk to be awarded the Victoria Cross which he was awarded after the Battle of Loos, France in World War I for most conspicuous bravery. The 9th Battalion the Suffolk Regiment was among the reserves hurried forward to support the British offensive after the initial assaults at the Battle of Loos on 25 September. When his officer was wounded, Sergeant A F Saunders took charge of two machine-guns and supported charges made by the Cameron Highlanders. He and Second Lieutenant Christison, 6th Battalion Cameron Highlanders, soon found themselves isolated as the British fell back. One of Saunders’ legs was now nearly torn off by a shell and Christison applied a tourniquet to it. Despite his wounds Saunders used a Lewis gun to repel a German attack. When his officer had been wounded in the attack he took charge of two machine guns and a few men and although severely wounded in the thigh, closely followed the last four charges of another battalion and rendered every possible support. Later, when the remains of the battalion which he had been supporting had been forced to retire, he stuck to one of his guns, continued to give clear orders, and by continuous firing did his best to cover the retirement.
