The pocket general.

He was a very small man but was genuinely respected by the men who served under him including the Irish men many of whom served with him in India!

Victoria Cross, VC - top left medal. Details at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_Roberts,_1st_Earl_Roberts "He was awarded the Victoria Cross medal for actions on 2 January 1858 at Khudaganj. The citation reads: Lieutenant Roberts' gallantry has on every occasion been most marked. On following the retreating enemy on 2 January 1858, at Khodagunge, he saw in the distance two Sepoys going away with a standard. Lieutenant Roberts put spurs to his horse, and overtook them just as they were about to enter a village. They immediately turned round, and presented their muskets at him, and one of the men pulled the trigger, but fortunately the caps snapped, and the standard-bearer was cut down by this gallant young officer, and the standard taken possession of by him. He also, on the same day, cut down another Sepoy who was standing at bay, with musket and bayonet, keeping off a Sowar. Lieutenant Roberts rode to the assistance of the horseman, and, rushing at the Sepoy, with one blow of his sword cut him across the face, killing him on the spot.

Roberts actually lived in Waterford for a while which might explain why his portrait is among the Poole collection! There's a plaque on a wall out the Dunmore Road giving details!

Here is an early history from IT in 1901 - Viscount Gort, Viscount Gough, Loretto Sisters, Famine etc.
Sharon Corbet said:
The first Viscount Gough was a Field Marshal in the British Army and was active in both China and India. Among other things, he was the commander of the British Army at Chapoo which was commemorated in an earlier photo: www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/11726154244/in/photolist-...

According to Wikipedia, "Gottlieb Ferdinand Albert Alexis Graf von Haeseler (January 19, 1836 – October 25, 1919) was a German military officer of the Imperial Wilhelmine period, with final rank of Generalfeldmarschall." ("Graf" meaning "count" in German.)

At the bottom of the negative, an exact date seems to be scratched in. I seem to be able to make out a mirror-inverted ../../14, and 1914, that is, age 68, seems to fit.

Just think, he had his Baptism of Fire in 1864 during the Second Schleswig War with Denmark! So this photo was around 50 years after that war. Talk about your old War Horse!
