KILLED IN ACTION / DIED OF WOUNDS 25/4/1915
at 'W' Beach Gallipoli.

The 1st Lancashire Regt famously won SIX VICTORIA CROSSES BEFORE BREAKFAST on 25th April 1915.

An Important British War Medal (Single).To 2128 Pte. James Ryan 1st Lancs Fus. KILLED IN ACTION or DofW 25/4/1915 at W Beach (1st Day of Gallipoli Landings) The Regt won SIX VICTORIA CROSSES BEFORE BREAKFAST. The M.I.C. of James Ryan states DofW 25-4-15 but he was actually Killed in Action as he’s recorded as such in the L.F’s official history. In reality, he was almost certainly terminally wounded in one of the “C” company landing boats with his death occurring on the beach, but in this instance it’s a moot point.

James is also entitled to a 1914-15 Star & Victory Medal.
DO YOU HAVE THEM?

The Lancashire Fusilliers lost 533 men, killed , wounded & missing on “W” Beach on 25th April 1915, so it’s the 105th Anniversary this coming Saturday.
