Fight for UK recognition of forgotten WW2 hero Job Maseko

A South African living in Somerset in the United Kingdom has launched a campaign to get recognition for Job Maseko, a South African soldier and stretcher-bearer for the Allied Forces during the Second World War. Bill Gillespie believes that Maseko - who single-handedly blew up a German ship - should have been given a Victoria Cross. In this interview, Gillespie tells BizNews that he believes Maseko should have been given the same honours as other South African soldiers who fought in WW2, and he has started a petition on change.org - a cause that has received considerable support thus far.
