VC winner honoured at Belfast City Hall
The only person from Northern Ireland to be awarded the Victoria Cross during World War II, was commemorated on Saturday.

James Magennis, from west Belfast, won the medal while serving in the far east.

Mr Magennis took part in the midget submarine attack on the Japanese warship, Takao, in 1945.
