John Lucas (VC)

John Lucas (1826 – 4 March 1892) was born in Glasgomy, Bagenalstown, Co Carlow and was an Irish 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.
==Details==
Lucas was approximately 35 years old, and a colour-sergeant in the 40th (2nd Somersetshire) Regiment of Foot (later part of the South Lancashire Regiment - The Prince of Wales's Volunteers) of the British Army:
The action was part of the First Taranaki War during the New Zealand Wars. This campaign started over a disputed land sale at Waitara. In December 1860 British forces under Major-General Pratt carried out sapping operations against a major Māori defensive line called Te Arei ("The barrier") on the west side of the Waitara River and inland from Waitara, which was barring the way to the historic hill pā of Pukewairangi. The 18 March was the last day before a truce was declared.〔''In the Face of the Enemy'' by Glyn Harper and Colin Richardson p. 36 (2006, Auckland, HarperCollins) ISBN 1-86950-522-0〕〔''The New Zealand Wars: and the Victorian Interpretation of Racial Conflict'' by James Belich p. 75 (1986, Auckland University Press, Auckland) ISBN 1-86940-002-X〕
