Lt.Col Donald Dickson Farmer (1877-1956), Queen's Cameron Highlanders. The Cameron Highlanders, The Depot. One of four VC winners re-copied for a composite picture in January 1929. He joined the Cameron Highlanders in March 1892, and served with the 1st Battalion in the Sudan Campaign, 1898, and was present at the battles of Atbara and Khartoum. Farmer was a sergeant during the Second Boer War when he won the VC on 13th December 1900 at Nooitgedacht, South Africa. His citation reads: During the attack on General Clements Camp at Nooitgedacht, on the 13th December, 1900, Lieutenant Sandilands, Cameron Highlanders, with fifteen men, went to the assistance of a picquet which was heavily engaged, most of the men having been killed or wounded. The enemy, who were hidden by trees, opened fire on the party at a range of about 20 yards, killing two and wounding five, including Lieutenant Sandilands. Sergeant Farmer at once went to the Officer, who was perfectly helpless, and carried him away under a very heavy and close fire to a place of comparative safety, after which he returned to the firing line and was eventually taken prisoner. His Victoria Cross is displayed at the Regimental Museum of Queen's Own Highlanders, Fort George.

Corporal James Dalgleish Pollock (1890-1958). The Cameron Highlanders, The Depot. One of four VC winners re-copied for a composite picture in January 1929. Pollock was 25 years old, and a corporal in the The Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders during the First World War when the following deed took place for which he was awarded the VC: On 27th September 1915 near the Hohenzollern Redoubt, France, at about noon the enemy's bombers in superior numbers were successfully working up Little Willie Trench towards the Redoubt. Corporal Pollock, after obtaining permission, got out of the trench alone and walked along the top edge with complete disregard for danger, and compelled the enemy bombers to retire by bombing them from above. He was under heavy machine-gun fire the whole time, but contrived to hold up the progress of the Germans for an hour before he was at length wounded. His Victoria Cross is displayed at the Regimental Museum of Queen's Own Highlanders, Fort George.
