Incredible story of absolute courage and compassion by William Coltman. No one can ever say anything negative about any stretcher bearer. I was stunned by the accomplishments of this gardner. Yes to the story you proposed, well done, amigo.😊
@@TheHistoryChap another great video. william coltman was a very brave man indeed. deserved the victoria cross and all the other medals he was awarded.
Thanks Chris, also to my shame I'd never heard of William Coltman VC, what an amazing British soldier and a true hero worthy of any Spielberg/Hanks movie blockbuster. Thanks for educating us of the life of this great Briton.
To my shame, this is the first time that I had heard of William Coltman VC, DCM and Bar, MM and Bar. Thank you for educating me about such an outstanding person.
Thank you for your continues efforts to bring these stories to peoples attention, stories that have been all to easily forgotten by the younger generations. You bring life to heroes, who truely deserve to be remebered, with such respect and dignity.
An extraordinary and very moving story. William Coltman deserves a monument, and I mean that. In spite of not being British, I would donate money for it if it ever happens. Having said that, I forgot that a member of the British government proposed to erect a memorial for the "patriotic" Muslims who died "for King and Country". I believe they will get their memorial BEFORE Coltman.
William Coltman VC was very Brave Man too realize he couldn't kill a fellow human being, but he was still willing to risk his life save others in a time of war.
"Yes". What has always impressed me the most are comrades who put themselves in danger to save the lives of others. And your maps with arrows showing where the story takes place are damn good. Please continue to tell the story of VC recipients. Well done Chris❤👍🤟
Good morning, Chris, well that was an amazing story. I was covered in goose bumps. I was a medic back in my military days. Not obviously in the UK, I wish I had heard of this amazing man, it may have motivated some of the soldiers who I served with. Being a medic back then was not as glamorous as now. Chris, you have a fantastic ability of telling a riveting story, many thanks.
Yet another excellent documentary! I noticed later in the video that you mentioned another VC recipient - Bernard Freyberg. A documentary on him may be quite interesting. His military career in the First World War is packed with astoundingly brave feats. He's regarded as a hero in my country, New Zealand. Thank you!
It’s so nice to hear stories of men awarded the VC or highest honor of whatever country they represent, alive rather than posthumously! Thanks for this!
A wonderful story well told. The devilish nature of war is often too unbearable to look at . When we see any war through the prism of good men in terrible times, we realise the evil of the cull they have endured. Thank you chap.
Excellent tale Chris ! Spookily, just as you briefly mentioned Arthur Martin Leake I was driving through High Cross on the old A10, his final resting place 😳
A definite yes on the Bantam video Chris, my Great Uncle Issac Reach served with the 14th Gloucestershire Bantams and died on the first day of the battle of the Somme, so I’ve always had a great interested in these units.
Absolutely inspirational. He demonstrated selfless heroism and bravery - two terms that are grossly overused and misapplied these days. And he did so with an uncommon dash of humility. Thanks for creating and posting this episode.
Thank you for this video, Chris, your coverage of The Great War is always fair, unbiased and without any of the revisionist distortions that are far too common these days. In answer to your question, yes, please produce a video about the 'bantom' batalions.
What a superb story about another humble man who saw no fear in his brave feats that are astoundingly brave to me yet no doubt this gentleman thought he was just doing his duty for his fellow brave comrades. Thank you for bringing to us another fascinating story of an ordinary man who epitomises and so richly deserves to be called a TRUE LIFE HERO.
There's a Ukrainian Canadian winning the VC in the First World War for Hill 70 in France the valour portrayed single handedly destroyed two German machine gun posts and bringing back two machine guns to the Canadian side after bayoneted 11 Germans and while trying to knock out a 3rd German machine gun post he was wounded. King George the 5th pinned the VC and wanted to where he was from he replied I'm from Ukraine. This VC holder attended the 100 year of the Victoria Cross holders in 1956 payed for by Canadian Ukrainians veterans because he couldn't afford so the veterans pitched in donating 5000 dollars for him to attend.
Thank you, Chris, for this story about a man who was worth looking up to in every sense of the word. Call it sheer good fortune, or the protecting hand of God (and I prefer the latter), he was incredibly fortunate to have done so many heroic deeds and lived - and, like so many other genuine heroes, didn't tell the tale afterwards. To have done any one of the things he did took courage; to have carried on doing them, time after time after time shows bravery beyond belief. Small in stature, yes, but a little man with an incredibly big heart. I find it interesting that not only he but two of the three men to earn the VC twice were actually medical men, every bit as brave morally as they were physically. In the words of The History Guy, on another channel here, we should remember them. I'll look the two padre's stories up too; Woodbine Willie is still remembered here in Birmingham. And yes to the bantams story.
OMG, what an absolute hero if EVER there was one indeed, and you said in your description, Chris old chap, that in many ways, the story of this incredible man William Coltman has some similarities to Desmond Doss in the film Hacksaw Ridge, which I can ABSOLUTELY TOTALLY relate to indeed, WWII and America had Desmond Doss (who Andrew Garfield really does do such an absolutely amazing job at playing in the film concerned), while we Brits and WWI has THIS guy, William Coltman, and his absolutely incredible and totally worthy of being truly called heroic actions on the battlefield, he and Desmond Doss really truly can be compared together in some ways INDEED. Oh MAN, I've really GOT to get a move on with watching and seeing some of your earlier video topics from the year or so before last year, which is when I first came across your amazing channel on here myself thanks to one of your Dad's Army coverages, and if it hadn't've been for that... you really well and truly know JUST what and how to give British military history topics, battles and particular heroic individuals together when I say that, now if only I can just give mysself the damn time and mood to do and enjoy some more of your earlier videos besides the ones I HAVE seen, haha...
Chris I really enjoyed this story of William Coltman VC. I love to hear more stories of men and weman who served in the army who came from Stoke on trent Staffordshire.
New medics for the Royal Navy, Royal Marines, British Army, and RAF are trained at DMS Whittington near Lichfield; the regimental depot of the North Staffordshire Regiment and the South Staffordshire Regiment. William Coltman VC DCM & Bar MM & Bar enlisted in that very base. It's a momentous thing to walk through those gates knowing he did also. Next to the base is the museum of the Staffordshire Regiment, wherein there is a reconstruction of a WW1 trench called the Coltman Trench. Not just that but the headquarters of the Surgeon General of the Army (also based at DMS Whittington alongside the Defence Medical Academy) is Coltman House
Yes, Chris! Let’s hear more about the ‘Bantams!’ It was indeed also very inspiring & edifying to hear this incredible story of William Coleman, VC, DSC & Bar; MM & Bar & MiD! Hopefully, we will soon have more even more of the same or similar?!!
Thank you for your light on history and your joyful way to tell the tales of better men so we youg can live up to them and the next kin can look up to us.
Apologies Chris how did I miss commenting on this one at the time lol What an astonishing story of a truly remarkable man, we use hero too loosely these days. Long may these individuals be remembered
What an incredibly brave man. VC, MM & Bar, DCM & Bar. To my shame, my knowledge of WW1 isn’t as good as WW2, but yes, it would be great to hear a documentary on the Bantams.
@TheHistoryChap I've a story for you Chris,,, maybe you could make an episode,,, my first cousin who at 16 years old won't the MM on the somme on the first morning, his name was L/cpl Thomas Wilson Diver, he appears in the book 3 cheers for the derrys. Have served in the Royal INNISKILLING FUSILIERS, until his death 4 weeks before the end of WW1, hailing from Londonderry, he covered the retreat from the German C line of trenches, enabling 100s of men to withdraw as they had no flanking support. He was an expert with his Lewis gun.
To the best of my knowledge the only member of our family to have been awarded a bravery medal was a great uncle - also a stretcher bearer. I only saw him once, a small man sitting quietly in the stove alcove on a chilly winter's day. A pity that it was only in later years that the horrors of Passchendaele and the attack on Polygon Wood, where he stayed behind from his relieved battalion and went out repeatedly to carry in his mates under horrendous fire, became known to me. The only thing he ever related to the family was of the sheer exhaustion of struggling through the mud.
One thing to remember that makes things like this more understandable is that medals are not usually given out for killing lots of people, while that may be something that happens it's done in the course of doing something that saves lives. And there are plenty out there that have been awarded purely for saving lives, or even just a single life. A classic example would be single handedly charging a machine gun. While at first glance that's "he killed some people" it's actually that machine guns kill a lot of people, and also pin them down so things like artillery kill more, so by doing so he saved many lives.
The term Hero is thrown out today like nothing, but this man was the definition of it, Hollywood needs to make a movie about him and Given - hacksaw ridge - surely Mel Gibson would happily direct.
Would you be able to cover the battles of the first war in cyprus? I have a fallen great great uncle who is buried in casoule cemetery, but for the life of me cannot find any reference.
Yes for the bantams
You get the honour of being vote number 1.
I second this!
I third it.
Only 4.😢
Yes please. I have always been inspired by the story of the Bantams.
Incredible story of absolute courage and compassion by William Coltman. No one can ever say anything negative about any stretcher bearer. I was stunned by the accomplishments of this gardner. Yes to the story you proposed, well done, amigo.😊

I owe you one for this.
Many thanks.
Another Brilliant video Chris! This Reminds me of our own Country's pacifist Medal of Honor recipient Desmon Doss from WWII
They share a lot of similarities.
When Religious Fanaticism counts as "Exceptional Bravery" instead of "Utter Stupidity " !
Thank you for your continues efforts to bring these stories to peoples attention, stories that have been all to easily forgotten by the younger generations. You bring life to heroes, who truely deserve to be remebered, with such respect and dignity.
Thank you for your kind comment. Much appreciated.
Thanks Chris for bringing these fantastic stories of past British military history to the modern day audience that in other wise be lost in the past.
An extraordinary and very moving story. William Coltman deserves a monument, and I mean that. In spite of not being British, I would donate money for it if it ever happens.

Never heard of a braver man nor one who showed as much moral courage. Regards

Glad you enjoyed my video and thanks for your comments.
After movies about Alvin York (Sergeant York) and Desmond Doss (Hacksaw Ridge) we need a film about William Coltman.
It would be a good one. I wonder who they would get to play him?
This country really needs heroes right now, heroes who were thoroughly good men, and that's a great suggestion.
@@TheHistoryChapRonnie Corbett being dead perhaps (to secure US film finance) that famous American runt Tom Cruise comes to mind? 😜🤣🤣
Straight from the live and into the story of one of my hero's
