TOP GUN

A SECOND World War hero is being honoured with a display to recognise his courage in saving his comrades, even after suffering a fatal injury.

Pte Adam Wakenshaw was part of an anti-tank unit that came under fire in Mersa Matruh, Egypt, in 1942.

He twice dragged himself back to his gun to stave off the German attack, despite losing part of his arm, before succumbing to his injuries at the age of 28.

His bravery prevented the enemy from attacking a nearby infantry company and allowed them to withdraw.
