Jack Emanuel : ウィキペディア英語版 | Jack Emanuel Errol John Emanuel GC (13 December 1918 – 19 August 1971), always known as Jack Emanuel,〔Michael Ashcroft, ''George Cross Heroes'', 2010〕 was a District Commissioner in the East New Britain district of Papua New Guinea who was posthumously awarded the George Cross, the highest British (and Commonwealth) award for bravery out of combat, for gallantry displayed between July 1969 and 19 August 1971. He was born on 13 December 1918, at Enfield, New South Wales. His award was noted in the ''London Gazette'' of 1 February 1972, and the citation describes how throughout the period he had been working with the Tolai people of the Gazelle Peninsula, resolving factional conflicts, and restoring local government. On several occasions, despite the danger, he left his police escort to conduct negotiations single-handedly, despite the danger. On 19 August 1971 he did so again, despite the fact that some of the dissidents were in war paint. He was killed shortly after beginning negotiations. ==References==
