History
The Victoria Cross is the highest award for acts of bravery during wartime, and to date, only 101 Australians have been presented with this prestigious medal.
One of them is Captain Robert Grieve, whose medal is on display in the Shrine Galleries.
Join us as Philip Powell unpacks the story behind Grieve’s VC, his unlikely meeting with the Queen and how the medal survived a large fire.
Music: Across the Line, Lone Canyon
