  • Alexander Robert Kennedy MC is a serving member of the British Army and believed to be the youngest person to be awarded the Military Cross since the Second World War. Kennedy is originally from Bromsgrove. A private in the Mercian Regiment, he was awarded the MC on 19 March 2010, in recognition of his efforts to aid his injured platoon commander whilst under fire during a battle in Helmand province, Afghanistan in June 2009. Private Kennedy was taking part in an operation to clear hostile terrain in Garmsir when his group was attacked by Taliban insurgents who opened fire from 100–150 metres away. Kennedy's platoon commander was shot three times below the hips. Upon reaching and attending to his commander, Kennedy then used his radio to direct fire at his attackers.
