An extract taken from the London Gazette dated 27th July 1900 records the
following: "John Norwood, Lieut. 5th Dragoon Guards. Date of Act of Bravery
30th Oct. 1899. On the 30th Oct. 1899, this officer went out from Ladysmith
in charge of a small patrol of the 5th Dragoon Guards. They came under heavy
fire from the enemy, who were posted on a ridge in great force. The patrol,
which had arrived within about 600 yards of the ridge, then retired a full
speed. One man dropped, and Second Lieut. Norwood galloped back about 300
yards through heavy fire, dismounted, and picking up the fallen trooper,
carried him out of fire on his back, at the same time leading his horse with
one hand. The enemy kept up an incessant fire during the whole time that
Second Lieut. Norwood was carrying the man until he was quite out of range"
