The K IN G has been graciously pleased to approve the award of the VIC TO RIA
CROSS for valour to :—
The late Corporal (Temporary) Thomas Peck Hunter, CH/X. 110296, R.M. (attached
Special Service Troops) (43rd R.M. Commando) (Edinburgh).
In Italy during the advance by the Commando to its final objective,
Corporal Hunter of “ C ” Troop was in charge of a Bren group o f the leading
sub-section of the Commando. Having advanced to within 400 yards of the
canal, he observed the enemy were holding a group of houses South o f the
canal. Realising that his Troop behind him were in the open, as the country
there was completely devoid of cover, and that the enemy would cause
heavy casualties as soon as they opened fire, Corporal Hunter seized the
Bren gun and charged alone across two hundred yards o f open ground.
Three Spandaus from the houses, and at least six from the North bank of
the canal opened fire and at the same time the enemy mortars started to
fire at the Troop.
Corporal Hunter attracted most of the fire, and so determined was his
charge and his firing from the hip that the enemy in the houses became
demoralised. Showing complete disregard for the intense enemy fire, he
ran through the houses, changing magazines as he ran, and alone cleared the
houses. Six Germans surrendered to hi. and the remainder fled across a
footbridge on to the North bank of the cax>il.
The Troop dashing up behind Corporal Hunter now became the target
for all the Spandaus on the North o f the canal. Again offering himself as a
target, he lay in full view of the enemy on a heap of rubble and fired at the
concrete pillboxes on the other side. He again drew most of the fire, but
by now the greater part o f the Troop had made for the safety of the houses.
During this period he shouted encouragement to the remainder, and called
only for more Bren magazines with which he could engage the Spandaus.
Firing with great accuracy up to the last, Corporal Hunter was finally hit
in the head by a burst of Spandau fire and killed instantly.
There can be no doubt that Corporal Hunter offered himself as a target
in order to save his Troop, and only the speed of his movement prevented
^iiim being hit earlier. The skill and accuracy with which he used his Bren
\
37 3438
gun is proved by the way he demoralised the enemy, and later did definitely
silence many of the Spandaus firing on his Troop as they crossed open ground,
so much so that under his covering fire elements of the Troop made then-
final objective before he was killed.
Throughout the operation his magnificent courage, leadership and
cheerfulness had been an inspiration to his comrades.
