The Victoria Cross was awarded to New Zealand soldier Captain Charles Upham during World War II. He received the honor for his extraordinary bravery during the Battle of Crete in 1941 and again for his actions in North Africa in 1942. Upham is one of only three people to receive the Victoria Cross twice. His remarkable courage and leadership have made him a celebrated figure in New Zealand's military history.

Why did nz get involved in ww1?
NZ was colonized by the British and a country in the British Empire. When Great Britain went to war with Germany, so did NZ, Australia, Canada, and other countries which were then part of the British Empire. WW1 was not merely a clash of countries. It was a clash of empires, even more so than WW2, and it is difficult to equate in a modern context now that Imperialism is in the past. The question "Why should NZ get involved?" was probably not asked in NZ at the time, at least not aloud.
