The exact date of the photograph is unknown, but the image must have been taken prior to 23 June 1944 (as the person in the photograph died that day). As such it is a photograph created by the United Kingdom government prior to 1 June 1957 and therefore in the public domain. It is a photograph of a deceased Victoria Cross recipient and therefore has historical significance. It was retrieved from a source that has Crown Copyright attributed to it, but as it is a photo taken prior to 1 June 1957 its copyright expires 50 years after creation, which would be at the latest 1994.
