In this episode, podcast host and author Matt Limb shares the story behind his book Valour – The Victoria Cross & The Lincolnshire Regiment. Written alongside the Veterans Voices UK podcast, the book brings together the stories of ten men from one regiment who earned the Victoria Cross.
From an unexpected discovery that sparked the idea, to a chance meeting in an Italian war cemetery, a moment that proved both moving and memorable – Matt reflects on his research and the courage of the men behind the medals, exploring what drove them, what connected them and why their stories still matter today.
