GW101A – Lieutenant Albert Borella VC – 26th Battalion AIF

Albert Chalmers Borella became one of Australia's most highly decorated soldiers of the First World War.

Serving with the 26th Battalion AIF, Borella was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions near Villers-Bretonneux on 17–18 July 1918. Leading a small party forward under heavy fire, he attacked enemy positions, captured machine guns and continued to organise the defence of the newly won ground.

Borella's wartime decorations also included the Military Medal and Distinguished Conduct Medal.

GW101A is an especially significant figure for collectors interested in the 26th Battalion and Australia's Victoria Cross recipients.

Available through The Military Workshop – a distinguished Thomas Gunn portrayal of Lieutenant Albert Borella VC, one of the most decorated Australians of the Great War.
