  • Alfred Ernest Ind VC (16 September 1872 - 29 November 1916) was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces. He was 29 years old, and a Shoeing Smith in the Royal Horse Artillery, British Army during the South African War (Boer War). On 20 December 1901 near Tafelkop, Orange River Colony, South Africa, Shoeing Smith Ind stuck to his pompom gun under very heavy fire when the whole of the remainder of the team had been shot down, and continued to fire into the advancing enemy until the last possible moment. A captain who was mortally wounded on this occasion, requested that Shoeing Smith Ind's gallant conduct on this and in every other action since he joined the pompom service be brought to notice. He later achieved the rank of Farrier-Sergeant.
