| dbo:abstract | Gonville Bromhead VC (* 29. August 1845 in Versailles; † 9. Februar 1892 in Allahabad) war ein britischer Offizier und Träger des Victoria-Kreuzes. Er kommandierte die britischen Truppen bei Rorke’s Drift im Zulukrieg. (de) Major Gonville Bromhead VC (29 August 1845 – 9 February 1891) was a British Army officer and recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest award for valour in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to members of the British armed forces. He received the medal for his part in the defence of Rorke's Drift in January 1879, in which a small British garrison of 139 soldiers successfully repulsed an assault by some 4,000 Zulu warriors. Bromhead was portrayed by Michael Caine in the film Zulu, which depicted the battle. Born into a notable military family, Bromhead was brought up in Thurlby, Lincolnshire. He entered the 24th Regiment of Foot as an ensign in 1867 and was promoted to lieutenant in 1871. Bromhead's battalion was deployed to southern Africa in 1878 and subsequently served in the Ninth Cape Frontier War and the Anglo-Zulu War. He spent most of the remainder of his career in south Asia, where he was promoted to major in 1883 and saw service in the Third Anglo-Burmese War. He died in 1891 in Allahabad, India, at the age of 45. (en) Gonville Bromhead (Versailles, Frankrijk, 29 augustus 1845 - Allahabad, Brits-Indië, 9 februari 1892) was een Britse militair. Hij had als laatste officierstitel de rang van majoor, en kreeg de hoogste onderscheiding, het Victoria Cross (VC) voor dapperheid in het zicht van de vijand, die kan worden toegekend aan de Britse- en Commonwealth (Gemenebest) legers. (nl) Gonville Bromhead, född 29 augusti 1845, död 9 februari 1892, var en brittisk major som tilldelades Viktoriakorset för sin roll i slaget vid Rorke's Drift 1879. Bromhead var helt döv vilket hade hindrat hans möjligheter till befordran. Eftersom Bromhead erhöll sin befordran till löjtnant tre år senare (1871) än John Chard blev han fråntagen befälet av Rorke's Drift till denne. Detta var på order från major Spalding som dagar innan slaget fastställt denna order. Det beror alltså inte på Bromheads dåliga hörsel som många tidigare trott. Gonville Bromhead var ett omtyckt befäl hos 24:e infanteriregementet och hade även förtjänat sig ett smeknamn som "Gunny". Bromhead härstammade från en släkt av högt uppsatta militärer. Hans farfar slogs till exempel vid slaget vid Waterloo 1815. Direkt efter slaget vid Rorke's Drift befordrades han till kapten och sedan major. Bromhead dog 1892 i tyfoidfeber i Camp Dabhaura, Allahabad i Brittiska Indien där han även begravdes i en militärkyrkogård. Kyrkan i Thurlby, Lincolnshire i England har tillägnat honom ett färgat glasfönster och hans farfar som stred i slaget vid Waterloo ligger även begravd där. Bromheads Viktoriakors finns att beskåda i South Wales Borderers Museum i Wales. (sv) Гонвиль Бромхед (англ. Gonville Bromhead, 29 августа 1845 — 9 февраля 1891) — офицер британской армии, обладатель Креста Виктории, высшей награды британской армии. Медаль была получена за участие в обороне миссии Роркс-Дрифт, где рота Бромхеда, 139 человек, отбила атаки 4 тысяч зулусов. Майкл Кейн сыграл роль Бромхеда в фильме «Зулусы». Бромхед родился в известной семье военных и вырос в Тёрлби, Линкольншир. В 1867 году он вступил в 24-й пехотный полк в звании энсина и в 1871 году был повышен до лейтенанта. Батальон Бромхеда был расквартирован в Южной Африке в 1878 и участвовал в Кафрских войнах и в Зулусской войне. Впоследствии он служил в Южной Азии, в 1883 году был повышен до майора и участвовал в Третьей Бирманской войне. Умер 9 февраля 1891 года от брюшного тифа в Аллахабаде, Индия, в возрасте 45 лет.
