Sgt Thomas Mottershead VC DCM unveiling update, March 2016 .
The relatives and the committee of Tom's Statue Appeal Fund have had a long discussion about the date of the unveiling of his statue and have decided that 2nd June 2017 was inappropriate. This would be the Centenary of Tom's widow receiving his Victoria Cross from King George V.
