Frank Partridge was a farmer, a quiz show winner and Australia's youngest Victoria Cross recipient in World War II. He received the VC for his action in northern Bougainville on 24 July 1945. He attacked 2 Japanese bunkers during fighting there.

Patridge was the last Australian awarded the VC in World War II.

After the war, Partridge won acclaim as a quiz show winner of Pick-a-Box after the war. But his television fame was short-lived. Partridge died in a car accident when he was only 39.
