Major Jack Baker MC and bar, Mentioned in Dispatches – 'a Tiger tank, a
bazooka and a grenade earned him his. He couldn't
shake the army habit, went to Japan with J-Force and
spent nine years in the regular Army.'
In Nga Tama Toa, p.337, historian Monty Soutar describes
the action in which Baker earned a bar to his Military Cross (MC), clearing a path through a
minefield in Italy.
