WW1 Canadian Corporal Joseph Kaeble Victoria Cross winner

Corporal Kaeble was in charge of a Lewis gun section during a strong enemy attack, when all but one of his section became casualties. As soon as the barrage lifted and about 50 of the enemy advanced, Corporal Kaeble jumped over the parapet with his Lewis gun, emptying one magazine after another into the advancing enemy. Although hit several times, he continued to fire and blocked the enemy advance, until he fell mortally wounded

@WALTERBROADDUS This is about a canadian not an australian, although they were just as brave ......unfortunately it you americans a few years to join as you enjoyed the profits of warfare.

[MrBrendanlittle]

@WALTERBROADDUS good on ya mate. its a good history of standing together. and its going to continue for a long time

[WALTERBROADDUS]

Corporal Kaeble did his duty, and did it well to the last. Very worthy of the VC.

[WALTERBROADDUS]

@MrBrendanlittl This Yank is mighty glad to have you guys on our side. From the bad days of 1941 till today. Some of the best friends to have our back in a fight has been from Australia. Sorry if our leader does not say much, but thanks.

@rothordegilian i would considerate him as a hero if he had went to ottawa and killed the bastard named borden and all the canadian parliament members to have involved french quebecers in ww1 ! joseph kaeble was only a follower without backbone who died for a stupid reason.

@rockythapa Check out the victoriacrossheroes d ot com website. It's associated with the people responsible for this TV series and the accompanying DVD - sporting the same title: Victoria Cross Heroes. The DVD covers winners from the days of the British Empire to the present. >.0

There are many Gurkha soldiers who also got VC  during WW I but sadly their own people, Nepalese, have forgotten about it.

Can u please tell me the name of the program from where u got this video? Maybe they have made one about the Gurkha soldiers too.

@uhfnutbar1 That´s why canadians don´t have to fight with the british anymore....Let them fight alone, they not deserve canadian help!!
