The Sepoy Mutiny, part 2: Delhi Explodes and the oldest ever Victoria Cross recipient earns his award!
Part Two of my series on the Indian Mutiny of 1857.
In today's episode, the mutiny moves to Delhi and the regiments of the Bengal army turn on their European officers. In a bloody fight at the Magazine, the oldest ever recipient of the Victoria Cross wins his award.
It is an amazing story.
