World War I Victoria Cross Medal Recipient. He served as a Corporal, in the 13th Battalion, Quebec Regiment, Royal Highlanders of Canada. At an offensive at Hangard France, on August 8, 1918, his company was held down by heavy fire from German machine-guns and light artillery. Corporal Good dashed forward alone, killing several of the first enemy gun crew and capturing the remaining. Collecting three men from his section, he charged a battery of 5.9-inch guns under point-blank fire and captured the entire crews of three positions. For extraordinary bravery in action, he was awarded the Victoria Cross Medal in December 1918. (bio by: John "J-Cat" Griffith) Search Amazon for Herman Good
