Rt. Rev. A. K. Warren, MC; Bishop of Christchurch; born Wellington, 23 Sep 1900; Anglican minister; wounded 29 Apr 1945. (Source: Loughnan, R.J.M. Divisional Cavalry. p.367.)

'Padre A. K. Warren won the Military Cross for outstanding courage and leadership in organising the evacuation of wounded at the Gaiana River. It was not until 1944 that his Church authorities would release him from his position as Dean of Christchurch, and when he arrived in the Middle East he was above the normal age for service in the field. However, he was very fit and was given the difficult task of following that most popular chaplain, Padre Taylor, in the Divisional Cavalry Regiment, which had just become an infantry unit. At Padua he was extensively wounded by shrapnel, but as so often happens with tall men—he stood 6 feet 5 inches— his most serious wound was in a foot.'
