The Victoria Cross: For Valour

In September 1944 at the Battle of Arnhem, Major Cain won what was described as the "finest Victoria Cross of the whole war". Telling his story, along with other personal accounts of staggering bravery, Jeremy Clarkson looks at the history of the highest military decoration awarded for valour in the face of the enemy. “The best programme Jeremy Clarkson has ever made… informative and poignant”, the Observer.
