A RARE SECOND WORLD WAR COMMANDO DAGGER

Harrison entered one doorway of a large machine workshop and as he did so a group of five enemy soldiers fired a Panzerfaust at him from the other end of the workshop. Lt. Sgt. Harrison was wounded in the leg, however completely undaunted he carried on doing the best his wound would allow, firing his carbine at the enemy. He killed one and drove the remainder of the group which included a Spandau team out of the building where he killed another, leading his sub-section onto where the enemy had taken cover. He drove them out once again and was responsible for wounding yet another before the remaining enemy soldiers surrendered. Up to this moment, the unit had been held up as the factory overlooked the route which the unit had to take with several casualties caused by the Spandau. Lt Sgt. Harrison, by his gallant and dashing action in which he showed complete disregard for his own personal safety, enabled the advance unit to continue without further casualties.
