About the memorial: Placed on the South-East corner of the Memorial Chapel, this is a bronze bust of Noel Godfrey Chavasse. Chavasse was not a soldier, but a medic, serving with the 10th Liverpool Scottish earning his first Victoria Cross during the Battle of Guillemot, France, for being injured whilst attending wounding whilst under-fire. He survived his injuries and went back to the front as soon as possible. However, a year later, he was injured whilst attending to injured Wientjes, Belgium, this time mortally and was awarded the Victoria Cross after his death. He is one of only three service people awarded the V.C. twice. His entry is on page 296 of the Roll of Honour.
