Alexander Malins Lafone VC (19 August 1870 – 27 October 1917) was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces. ==Background== He was educated at Dulwich College. Lafone fought in the Second Boer War in various regiments, was invalided in 1901 and ended as a lieutenant in the Imperial Yeomanry. He then stayed on in Africa working for the Colonial Office as an Assistant Resident in Northern Nigeria. Recurrent attacks of fever forced him back to England where he worked and kept up his connections with the Army.〔(Dulwich College website )〕
