Petition In Support Of Walter Tull


Northampton Town Supporters Trust are helping to promote a campaign by the Northants Black History Association to posthumously award former Northampton Town player, Walter Tull, his Military Cross from the First World War, which was denied him due to his colour.


2nd Lieutenant Walter Tull was the first Black infantry officer in the British Army. He was the first Black infantry officer to lead White troops into battle. He was the first Black infantry officer to be mentioned in despatches and was the first Black infantry officer to be recommended for a Military Cross, which he never received.
