in February 1894, he was present in the relief of Chitral operations in 1895.

The Battalion was next embarked for the South Africa and it was here, in December 1897, that Long was

transferred to the Army Reserve. He subsequently found employment as Chief Messenger at Government

House, Cape Town and it was in this capacity that he was awarded the Royal Victorian Medal in bronze for

the Duke of Connaught's visit in 1910.

He later served in the Cape Peninsula Garrison Regiment in the period August 1917 to February

Quartermaster of the 1st Bn A & S Highlanders he again was sent to South Africa with the Regiment to

Africa in Sept 1900 and was MID 10th Sept 1901 & Promoted to Capt QM on 27th Sept 1901 which appears

to be for his services in South Africa.

The information of his leaving South Africa in Sept 1900 seems doubtful as he was awarded the South Africa

1901 Clasp which is confirmed on the Roll with his new rank Capt QM.

When he did return, he was sent to the 4th Militia (Paisley) Battalion A & S Highlanders - he retired in 1908

the Greenock Sub Area.

He caused quite a stir at Buckingham Palace when he attended the MBE investiture wearing his full Highland

Dress Uniform and apparently was mobbed by photographers when he left the Palace after the Investiture

(such a photo was printed in the Stirlingshire Observer on 6/4/1918.)

He was appointed Superintendent of the Scottish Blinded Soldiers' and Sailors' Hostel, Newington House,

Edinburgh, October 1918; he oversaw the Prince of Wales' visit in December 1924.

Mentioned in Field Marshall Douglas Haig's Despatches of 14.12.1917.

He trained as a mining engineer starting in his father's office the late H. Ryan Lewis, for six months, 15 months

with the Liquid Fuel Engineering Company, Cowers and three months with the Thames Mining Machinery

Company. In 1900 he entered a contract with St. Marys Lead Works, Mary Anne mine, Menheniot Cornwall.

Sold with a good work resume including South Russia.

What was a Royal Engineer doing counterattacking with his company and holding out for seven hours before

withdrawing? This is not the normal role of a sapper in wartime. And was the wounding referred to the cause

of his death? The date of his death. 25th March 1918 makes me wonder if he was wounded on that day, the

day the German spring offensive reached Noyon. The rate of their advance eventually leading to General Haig

to issue his famous 'back to the wall' order on 11th April.

Air Force Cross London Gazette 1 January 1925:

'This officer has been in command of Experimental Section, Royal Aircraft Establishment, since April 1923,

and during this period, despite heavy administrative and technical work, he has constantly carried out his

flying duties with courage and enthusiasm. Invariably he himself flies for the first time all experimental types

and all aeroplanes fitted with new experimental equipment and apparatus, and by his indifference to all

considerations of personal risk, he has set a splendid example of courage and devotion to duty.'

Rollo Amyatt de Haga Haig 'known to all his friends as Haga, was in his day one of the best pilots that this

country has ever produced. He was born at Newcastle-on-Tyne in 1896 and was educated at Clifton.

He came into the Royal Flying Corps from the Infantry in 1916 when he was very young and did good work

in the War 1914-18, but he first made a name for himself when he was appointed to the Royal Aircraft

Establishment at Farnborough as test pilot. There he made history on December 4, 1925, by being the first

aviator in the World to drop in an aeroplane from an airship and hook onto it again.

He did the job in a D.H. 53 light aeroplane which was built for the Air Ministry trials of 1923, and the Airship

R.33.

He gave a magnificent display at the R.A.F. Pageant at Hendon in 1923 with a twin-motor Boulton and Paul

machine in which he fought two single-seat fighters and did everything which was done with a modernised

version of the same machine at Hendon this year [1936], - one of the performances which gave onlookers

more of a thrill than anything else in the Display.

Note: The recipient's Medal Index Card indicates that he was additionally awarded a Territorial Force War

Medal as a Lieutenant in the Royal Garrison Artillery (Territorial Force).

'For Conspicuous gallantry near St Eloi on 15th February 1915, when he rushed forward at great risk under

heavy fire and dragged back to his trench a seriously wounded Officer.,

Born Stoke, lived in Coventry, enlisted at Warwick 20th April 1908, trade iron polisher. Joined 'A' Company

1st DCLI on 18th September 1908 then to 2nd Btn.

In 1914 the 2nd Btn were in Honk Kong, after their return to the UK they were re-equipped and landed in

France 21st December 1914. In February 1915, the 2nd Battalion were in the trenches near St Eloi. This was

a period of extremely cold weather and the troops spent only two days in the line with one in support and two

in reserve. Mud and water caused many problems, and the enemy was active with rifle grenades and shell fire.

There was also the ever-present threat of snipers.

During a period out of line they were ordered forward to counterattack after the Germans had launched a

strong assault on the trenches occupied by the Leinsters. Packs were left in a barn near Voormezeele but it

was extremely dark and the march forward became a nightmare as the ground was heavily pitted with water

filled shell holes and ditches.

Shortly after midnight after a hurried consultation between Lieut/Col Tuson 2nd DCLI and the OC of 3rd

King's, verbal orders were given to draw up in two lines. The Battalion led a counterattack on Trenches 21

and 22, the Kings were to attack trenches 19 and 20.

The attack went forward at 4.am after a short artillery barrage. Both the DCLI and the KRR's captured their

objectives, captain F.C.C. Rogers and twelve O/R's were killed. Carkeet-James and twenty-eight other ranks

were wounded.

Private ponder was awarded the D.C.M for bringing in Lieut E. H. Carkeet-James who was seriously

wounded. This was the battalion's first attack upon enemy trenches, and the first gallantry award.

Pte C. Ponder D.C.M was killed in action on 15th February.

Lieut E. H. Carkeet-James was severely wounded. The lower bone in his left arm was shattered and the artery

severed. Amputation was necessary. Despite his severe wound Lieut E. H. Carkeet-James remained in the

trench, being the only surviving officer. He refused to be moved even when four bearers and a stretcher came.

During the day 'C' coy suffered many casualties from sniper fire one of these being Pte Ponder. When he

eventually reached hospital and not being aware of Pte Ponder being killed Lieut E. H. Carkeet-James

recommended him for the 'Victoria Cross'

Medal; Victory Medal South African Bi-lingual issue S/S.M. J. Warren. 5th S.A.I.)(3)

D.C.M. London Gazette 16 January 1919:

'For particular bravery and coolness in action. He fired his machine gun with effect and showed great control

over both gun and team. On one occasion when his gun was put out of action by a direct hit, he displayed

exceptional ability in getting it to fire again almost immediately.' J. Warren served during the Great War with the South African Special Service Company attached to the 2/4th

King's African Rifles in East Africa. He was awarded 1 of 2 D.C.M.'s, and 2 K.A.R. D.C.M.'s, awarded for

gallantry at Numarroe in August 1918. The following is given in The King's African Rifles, by Lieutenant-

Colonel H. Moyse-Bartlett: 'Action at Numarroe 24th August - on 23rd August Major P. Gerrard (London Regiment) was sent south east

of Regone to Numarroe with 'A' and 'B' Companies, 2/4th K.A.R., two machine guns and four Lewis guns.

The boma was still occupied by the Portuguese resident with a few irregular troops, who professed no

knowledge of the approaching enemy. On the 24th, Captain R. H. Harris (Royal Munster Fusiliers) left with

100 men to patrol the track to the River Lugella. Two hours after leaving Numarroe, Harris met the enemy

advance guard of three companies and was forced to make a fighting retreat. Gerrard sent up reinforcements,

but the enemy was too strong to be denied and gradually surrounded the boma. Repeated attacks were driven

off, but shortly after dark the Germans gained a lodgement in the trenches and the K.A.R. force was split in

two. Gerrard was taken prisoner, but Harris broke out and withdrew his troops towards Regone.'

D.C.M. London Gazette 24 September 1942. The original recommendation states.

'Company Sergeant-Major T. A. Mattock is the C.S.M. of 'B' Company, 5th Battalion, The East Yorkshire

Regiment. On the evening of 14 June 1942, during the withdrawal from the Gazala line in Libya, the C.S.M.

went into the attack on the Company P.U. with 'B' Company as spearhead company. When the smoke of the

shell fire and the dust of the tanks cleared away, the P.U. was about 150 yards away from a Breda and Reville

machine-gun nest. There was a similar nest in the rear. The P.U. was hit by an anti-tank shell and set ablaze

and this brought fire from the two nests and, for some time, owing to the heavy and intense fire, the personnel

of the P.U. were unable to move. However, when it was dark, this C.S.M. went to fetch up the rest of the

Company on to their objective but was fired on from 150 yards away. He went in with a private soldier to

clear up the post but the soldier was mortally wounded before they made contact. Although only armed with

a rifle and some hand grenades, the C.S.M. went on alone, accounted for his men and smashed up the guns by

firing into the locks.


22 cont.

He then went to clear the nest in the rear, which was pinning down the Company.

Although he was wounded about the neck, shoulders, and face, he carried on and accounted for his men with

hand grenades and brought back a prisoner who had tried to stop him. He was then pinned down by our own

barrage for at least two hours. It had been opened up to support the spearhead company, the support group not

knowing that the way had been made clear by the C.S.M.'s brilliant actions. He was then put on a carrier and

he brought through the "gap" a number of transport vehicles which were lost; he brought them to the Egyptian

border without the loss of one vehicle, using the stars as his guide in navigation. His actions on 28 June 1942

were also commendable. He took over the duties of Company Commander, since his own commander was

acting as navigator to the composite battle group which 'B' Company was part of. During his time in this

capacity, he brought the Company through heavy anti-tank fire without loss to a single vehicle. At times he

was going up and down the column on foot, giving directions and attack instructions to his men, also cheering

them by his own good spirits and disregard for his own safety.'

He is recommended for the highest possible award.'

Star; Africa Star; Italy Star; War Medal (5)

Hurricane Rocket Attack Aircraft Pilot's Distinguished Flying Medal Group awarded to Flight Sergeant (later

Pilot Officer) H.R. Lyle, Royal Air Force.

He flew operationally with 6 Squadron out of Borgo, flying the Hurricane Mk.IVs equipped with the rocket

projectiles, at a period when his squadron was heavily involved in attacking Axis convoys as well as road and

rail bridges amongst other targets. Lyle flew twenty-one sorties in June 1944 and pressed home his attacks at

low level with outstanding success, being personally responsible for the destruction of a considerable amount

of enemy shipping. During the period between the 2nd and 7th of June 1944, he took part in introducing the

new technique of rocket firing at night at very low altitude and displayed magnificent spirit in the manner in

which he overcame the difficulties caused by the intense glare of rocket firing at night, and the attendant

danger when firing very close to the water. During the five nights cited he flew sorties against enemy shipping,

pressing home his attacks at close range and almost on the deck despite heavy flak defences. Commissioned

that same month. He sadly lost his life in an accident on 8th November 1944 when demonstrating rocket

attacks to new pilots on the firing range near Torre Canne, Puglia. On his third run he broke too steeply, and

the aircraft performed a high-speed stall and flicked over into the edge of the sea. The Squadron Operational

Record Book states: 'It is with the deepest regret that the death of one of the Squadron's finest pilots is

recorded.' The DFM recommendation was made by Air Vice Marshal Lloyd, Air Officer Commanding Mediterranean

Allied Coastal Air Force, and was written on 5th July 1944. Hadley Robert Lyle came from Bearsden, Dunbartonshire the son of Major Norman Yates Lyle.

Widenham Francis Widenham Fosbery was born in Liverpool in October 1869. He joined the Colonial Service

and was appointed a Consular Agent for the Niger Coast Protectorate in 1893. Fosbery was appointed District

Commissioner of Southern Nigeria in 1896, before serving as Political Officer for the Central Division

Expedition of 1898.

He was severely wounded during the latter, and further detail is added by the following article which appeared

in the Liverpool Press in 1898:

'AFFAIRS IN WEST AFRICA, FIGHTING IN THE NIGER PROTECTORATE, THE SIERRA LEONE

RISING. (REUTER'S TELEGRAM)


94 cont.

The mail steamer Bakana which has arrived in Liverpool from the West Coast of Africa brings intelligence of

the Niger Coast expedition against the Nibo chief, who has been stopping trade. The Nibo chief was

summoned to a palaver, but refused, and the troops attacked the town, which was protected by a thick bush

stockade. The stockade was captured, and the town demolished under heavy fire. Two British officers, Major

Searle, and Consul Fosbery were wounded, and two native soldiers and a number of carriers killed. The chief

escaped into the bush, but eventually came in and surrendered. No estimate could be formed of the Nibos

killed. At Sierra Leone, the Naval Brigade, consisting of about 800 men, was landed from the warships there,

and marched through the town. This is the first time in the history of that colony that such a proceeding has

occurred, and the natives seemed greatly impressed. Based on information received from Sierra Leone and

statistics collected it is computed that the loss of life through the rising in that colony will be found to be very

little short of a thousand. No statistics have been received of the native war boys and native rebels killed by

the British warships, the West Indian troops, and the Frontier Police, but information

received leads to the belief that this list will be found to be an exceedingly heavy one.'

Fosbery also served as Acting Governor, before being appointed H.B.M.'s Consul for the Cameroons in 1910.

He was commissioned a Lieutenant in the Territorial Force Reserve and served as a Staff Captain 1915-16.

Fosbery was appointed a Captain in the Royal Defence Corps in December 1916 and served as a Temporary

Major and Assistant Supervising Officer in 1918 (not entitled to Great War Medals). He relinquished his

commission in December 1919 and died in February 1935.

Devonshire Regiment, then stationed in Dublin.

He was promoted Major in November 1892, by which time the Battalion had moved to Alexandria, in Egypt,

but had been warned for posting to India in 1893. The Battalion served on the North-West Frontier 1897-98

as part of the Tirah Field Force and Spratt subsequently received the India Medal 1895-1902, with clasps

casualties were as follows. Officers: 19. Other ranks: 400. The action in which he was killed is covered in

then transferred to the East Yorkshire Regimen. He was posted to the 12th Battalion on the 16th of December

1916. He was then posted to the 7th Batt on the 8th of February 1918. He is listed as Joseph Charles Hunt on

Charles Hunt. This is verified on his will dated 5th Dec 1916. Which also his correct army number and unit.

The census records for 1901 and 1911 also give his name as John. As the official records are taken from the

M.C. London Gazette 16 August 1921. 'Lt., 1/4th (with 13th) Rajputs, I.A.' 'For gallantry on the 12th of October 1920, near Tuwariz. When a bridge

of boats, the destruction of which would have meant that the only means of communication across the river

would be cut off, had been set on fire by the insurgents, this officer, regardless of all danger, at once rushed

over at the head of his platoon and drove off the enemy. Whilst crossing the river, Lt. Pocock was subjected

to heavy fire from the enemy at close range, and by his action not only saved the bridge from destruction, but

also very materially assisted in the ensuing attack. Moreover, this sudden and unexpected assault so surprised

the insurgents that they were compelled to retire and fled in confusion.'

Nicholas Edgar Innes Pocock was born in Bedford on 12 January 1899, the son of George Innes and Ellen

Elizabeth Pockock. He was commissioned a 2nd Lieutenant in the Unattached List, Indian Army on 30 January

served as Acting Captain, August 1918-January 1921, during which time he gallantly won the Military Cross

drove forward to rescue the wounded and then, with great gallantry which has been acknowledged by those

involved, he went back a second time for more wounded. Sadly, he was killed, and his ambulance was

destroyed'.

Only two men from the R.A.S.C. were killed, and 16 wounded, in Korea, most of them in the period of the

Extracts from 'Flight' dated 12th December 1918 reference D.F.C award L.G. 3.12.1918., P 14322. Second Lieutenant T.G. Hobbs (France)

'A skilful and gallant officer. On August 21st, this officer did six hours flying, he was twice attacked by large

formations, but on each skilful occasion manoeuvre and resolute fighting, he drove them off and continued

his patrol bringing back much valuable and accurate information. On the same day he attacked enemy

transport, causing great confusion, and inflecting heavy casualties.' Extracts for the Times 3.9.1918 Fallen Officer.

Second Lieutenant Thomas Goodwin Hobbes was born on 19th September 1888 at Gosport Hants and was

educated at St. Andrews School, Oxford where he distinguished himself at all the games and sports. After a

short business life, he took up farming in Canada, March 1909. When war was declared he at once volunteered

in 1914, went to the front in 1915 with the 8th Canadian Infantry taking part in some of the big battles of the

spring. He then contracted trench fever and for the next two years suffered from malaria and rheumatism

spending much of that time in hospital. When fit he was transferred to the R.A.F. where earlier in the year, he

qualified as a pilot and proceeded to the front on June 12th and died of wounds received in action on August

23rd.

His observer wrote. We were flying over the line when he was hit in the right arm and side by a piece of 'Archie' shell which burst

near us' with very great pluck and skill he succeeded in landing our machine well on our side of the lines

though he could only use his left arm. His death is a great blow to me, and I feel I owe him my life due to his

great courage and determination’.

Son of Ernest and Louise Hobbs and husband of Patricia D. Hobbs of Barrow Hill, Selvidge Hythe. A native

of Gosport Hants. He served over three years with the Canadian Infantry. Sold with further information.

The following report was published in Today on 10 November 1894:

'I am sending three guineas from the Gallantry Fund (and a medal will follow) to James Rowley, an employee

at Mr Whiteley's, who was instrumental, a little while ago, in saving four lives at Sheerness. Mr Rowley is an

expert swimmer, but he had to plunge into deep water with all his clothes on, to rescue four struggling people

- two lads and both their parents - none of whom could swim, and who were naturally in a state of mortal

terror. The fear was that he would become exhausted before he could possibly land the whole of them, or that

they in their frantic efforts would pull him down; but the gallant fellow seems never to have thought of that,

and to have stuck to his task till everyone was safe on shore.'

The Gallantry Fund Award was issued by a general interest magazine entitled Today, published from 1893 to

1905. The editor of Today for the period 1893-97 was Jerome K. Jerome, author of Three Men in a Boat and

other popular titles.

Capture of Rodrigues, Bourbon & Isle De France

The Madras Government (east India Company) found their commercial interests endangered by the French

occupation of the Isles De France & Bourbon where also numerous privateers found sanctuary and used as

bases. General Abercrobie was in command of an expedition which began by occupying Rodrigues which was

then used as a rendezvous by troops from Bombay and Madras. After slight resistance Bourbon fell to the

combined sea and land forces on 8th July 1810 and the expedition to take the Isle De France (Mauritius) was

then mounted. The force, having concentrated at Rodrigues, sailed for the Isle De France on 22nd November

and on 3rd December 1810, the French having been completely out-generalled, Port St. Louis surrendered.

The Island now reverted to its old name Mauritius so called originally by the Dutch in honour of their Prince

Maurice. About 2,200 of the medals were awarded to the troops who took part but it is thought that many were

over the years sold for melting or otherwise lost to posterity.

271 With original steel clip and silver bar suspension Captain Henry Lindsay, 2nd Batt. 69th

Foot.

Henry Lindsay was commissioned Ensign into the 84th Foot on 6 September 1794; exchanged to The Hon.

Robert Ward's Regiment of Foot, 4 October 1794; Lieutenant, 98th Foot, 4 July 1795; Captain, 69th Foot, 9

August 1803; Brevet Major, 4 June 1814; half-pay, 16 December 1819.He saw active service with the 69th in

the campaign in Travancore, India, in 1809, as related in the regimental history:

'Colonel St Leger advanced along the road from Palamcottah arriving before the Arambooly Lines on 6th

February. Being unprovided with a battering train the Colonel determined to affect a surprise against the

redoubt on the hill at the southern extremity of the works. During the night of the 9th the escalading party

moved silently towards this point. This party was made up of two companies and the picquets of the 69th, 150

in all, under Captain W. Symes (the other officers being Captains H. Lindsay and A. N. Cunningham,

Lieutenants R. Carey, J. Reed, L. Baby, and A. D. Baby), nine companies of Native Infantry, with a party of

pioneers carrying scaling ladders; Major Welsh of the 3rd Native Infantry was in command.

''During the early morning of the 10th, a party of the 69th climbed the steep face of the mountain and after six

hours' arduous ascent through almost impenetrable jungle reached the foot of the redoubt undiscovered by the

enemy, another company of the 69th and three of Native Infantry moving up in support. The ladders were

quickly placed against the wall; the garrison being taken by surprise made a feeble resistance; the redoubt was

carried with trifling loss, and its guns turned to enfilade the lines below. By eight o'clock in the morning the

whole chain of works, including the arsenal, had been stormed in several places, the north flanking redoubt

also carried, and the Travancoreans, hastily abandoning the rugged mountains, fell back into the open country

at the further end of the pass.'Mention is next made of Lindsay at the capture of Java and the action at

Weltervreeden in 1811:

'Gillespie decided to attack in two columns, but on finding the ground unsuitable for this, he brought up two

guns to deal with the enemy's four, sent his skirmishers into the pepper plantation, and deployed both his

columns. This evolution was answered by a tremendous fore from the whole of the enemy's line. Finding the

ground too intricate to advance in line he ordered Major Butler of the 89th to take the battery in flank. This

was gallantly and successfully done, when the whole of Gillespie's Division poured by companies, and even

sections, through thick jungle after the retreating enemy, the Light Company of the 69th heading the pursuit.


Waterloo Medal 1815

271 cont.

The advance was carried so far as to come under the fire of the entrenched camp of Cornelis. As strong

reinforcements were coming out of the camp Auchmuty put a stop to Gillespie's further advance and brought

up Wetherall's Division in support. Gillespie in his account of this affair specially mentions Captain H.

Lindsay, commanding the Light Company of the 69th.' Gillespie was afterwards entrusted with the principal

attack on Fort Cornelis, on which occasion Captain Lindsay again commanded the Light Company.At Quatre

Bras, Sir Colin Halkett 'himself then rode forward to the stream to observe the French positions. From there

he saw Kellerman with his cavalry preparing to advance and the French artillery re-opening fire. So he sent

his A.D.C. back to Colonel Morice ordering him to "form square" since a cavalry attack was to be expected,

whilst he himself galloped back to the rest of the brigade and gave similar orders.''

A few minutes later, whilst the regiment was in the process of forming square, the Prince of Orange galloped

up and asked the Colonel in a loud voice what was the object of his movement. "I am forming square," Colonel

Morice replied, "to resist cavalry." "There are none coming, deploy at once into line," replied the Prince. The

order had to be obeyed; but at that very moment the French artillery fire died away into an ominous silence as

Kellerman at the head of the 8th and 11th Cuirassiers, 800 strong, crossed the stream and advanced through

the tall rye. The regiment had by then its three right Companies (Grenadiers, Nos. 1 and 2) in line with the 8th

company covering the deployment, the remaining companies being in process of formation. ''The muffled

thunder of hoofs was heard amongst the rye. The steel-clad horsemen, headed by Kellerman, having failed to

break the 33rd then in square, "seeing the 69th in a hollow below, wheeled round and charged down upon

them. The Regiment made shift to throw itself into square, and apparently, would have succeeded had not the

Captain (Lindsay) of the grenadier company wheeled the two right hand companies about to fire, instead of

closing square."

The companies in position did partially check the charge by a sharp discharge of musketry. The two companies

were destroyed, and the rest were partly broken. The remainder of the Regiment saved themselves by taking

refuge under the bayonets of the 42nd and 44th of Pack's Brigade. Kellerman, continuing his career, charged

the 30th, who, having had time to form square, beat the cavalry off.''... in the midst of the confusion thus

created [the enemy] captured and carried off one of the Colours, in defence of which Major Lindsay,

Lieutenant Pigot, and Volunteer Clarke highly distinguished themselves and were desperately wounded.'

In respect of his wounds received at Quatre Bras, Major Lindsay was granted a pension of £100 per annum.

He retired on half-pay in December 1819 and his name disappeared from the Army List after 1827.

labourer by trade he made his mark 'X' on his discharge papers.

In June 1799 aged 23 he enlisted into the Argyle Fensibles in which he served until September 1802.

Discharged 8th August 1806 from the 2/26th Foot by volunteering to serve with the 1/92nd Gordon

Highlanders. He served a total of 16 years & 180 days, but as his service of 3 years 335 days with 2/26th Foot

should be added.

This actually gives him a total service time of 20 years 150 days, with a discharge date at Dublin at age 41 on

27th October 1817 as being considered unfit for further service. Served at Waterloo, character good and that

his collarbone had been broken in consequence of a cannon shot having caused a wall to fall on him while in

action with the enemy at Alba-De- Tormes in Spain 1812.

He fought in Spain during the Peninsular War and with which he later fought at the Battle of Quatre Bras on

16th June 1815 and two days later at the Battle of Waterloo on 18th June 1815 serving in Captain Maxwell's

Company. The 1/92nd fought with great fame and distinction at Waterloo and took part in some of the most

famous individual actions on the day. Comprised of 588 Officers and men. The Regiment suffered the fourth

highest number of casualties (441) during the battle with a total of 75 killed and 366 wounded, and the highest

percentage casualty rate of any unit at exactly 75%!

The 92nd were attached to Pack's Brigade, part of Picton's 5th Division. Hector served under Captain William

McKay. The Battle of Quatre Bras was a bloodbath for the 92nd who lost 286 men including their

Commanding Officer Lt Col Cameron who had led his men through the Peninsular War.

On the 18th of June at the Battle of Waterloo the 92nd joined the famous charge of the Royal Scots Greys,

where many of the men grabbed the stirrups of the cavalry men to carry them into battle.

was posted to the 2nd Regiment on its formation.

He served in the Peninsula War including the battles of Salamanca, Vittoria and Toulouse for which he claimed

his M.G.S. medal with three clasps. The battle that won the regiment undying fame was at Garcia Hernandez,

the day after Salamanca, for which no clasp was issued.

The 1st and 2nd Dragoons encountered the French rear guard at Garcia Hernandez and in their famous charge

they broke three enemy squares (those of the 76th, 6th and 69th line) The first square was broken when a horse

crashed into the square opening a gap into which the Dragoons poured. This was the only instance in the

Peninsula War in which squares were broken only by Calvary.The end of 1813 saw the Heavy Dragoons

converted to Light Dragoons and Behrens served with them at Waterloo, serving with distinction, suffering

20-30% casualties.

Battalion, Grenadier Guards.

John Hudson served in the 1815 Waterloo Campaign as a Private in Lieutenant-Colonel Colquitt's Light

Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Foot Guards. He would have been present at Quatre Bras on 16 June, when the

Guards secured Wellington's position by evicting Jerome’s Division from Bossu Wood. Hudson's skill as a

sharpshooter was in great demand, as the French took full advantage of the cover afforded them by the trees

and foliage. Costly skirmishes took place in which French voltigeurs would melt into the undergrowth before

the Guards could close with the bayonet. It was a frustrating action in which the Guards lost heavily.

During the night of 17 June, having redeployed his army nine miles south of Brussels on the ridge of Mont St.

Jean, Wellington ordered all four Guards Light Companies - one from each Guards Battalion - to leave the

ridge and prepare Hougoumont farm for defence the following day. In torrential rain, the guardsmen laboured

to build fire-steps up against Hougoumont's 2 metre high red-brick walls, into which they bored loopholes

with their bayonets. Pioneers of the King's German Legion were sent from La Haye Sainte to assist. The

Guards arrived just in time, as French patrols very nearly took Hougoumont for the Emperor.

At the Battle of Waterloo on 18 June, both 1st Foot Guards Light Companies - under Lord Saltoun's overall

command - were stationed in the Great Orchard to the east of Hougoumont, an area of roughly 200 square

metres that was fiercely contested throughout the day. The assault closest to capturing Hougoumont was that

of Baudin's Brigade at 11.30 a.m. The French 1st and 2nd Light Regiments moved forward in skirmish order,

driving back Hanoverian and Nassau contingents. Saltoun led his two companies in a spirited charge which

stopped the French from encircling the position. At around 2 p.m. the French brought up a howitzer which

poured canister into Saltoun's men at point-blank range; both Light Companies made unsuccessful attempts

to seize the artillery piece. At 2.45 p.m. Saltoun was relieved by the 3rd Foot Guards under Colonel Hepburn.

He then marched his Light Companies back up the ridge to join their parent Battalions, meaning that Hudson

also served in the repulse of the Imperial Guard at 8 p.m.

It was under the dreadful hail of fire that Lieutenant-Colonel Colquitt wrote himself into the history of the

battle. His action was immortalised by Wills's Cigarette (Waterloo No. 24) cards with the following account:

'During the last mighty combined attack of the French Guards led by Ney, many acts of heroism were

performed. Our Guards were lying down to escape the terrible hurricane of fire from the French Artillery. A

live shell dropped in the midst of one of our squares, and Colonel Colquitt, of the Guards, coolly picked it up,

carried it to the edge, and threw it outside to explode harmlessly.'

At Agra on the 3rd of October 1848 the 24th received orders to march to Ferozepore due to a revolt in the

Punjab by the Sikhs once again. The force gathering was called the Army of the Punjab.

The fortress and the city of Mooltan fell to the forces under General Whish on the 2nd of January 1849. Lord

Gough now moved to confront the main Sikh force composed of 23,000 of the best surviving troops of the old

Khalsa army, with powerful artillery in the area of Chilianwala.

Gough deployed the army against the whole of the front of the Sikh position, much of which was shielded

from view by scrub and jungle. The 24th in the centre of the forces would have had to traverse the jungle

before seeing the enemy. Goughs last order was that the Sikh position was to be taken without firing a shot,

but by the point of the bayonet during the advance through the jungle Sikh cannon balls were blasting through

the trees. On emerging out of the jungle, the Sikh cannons and massed infantry were waiting twelve hundred

yards before them.

Without faltering the 24th charged right up to the guns, and suffered appalling casualties, the losses to the

24th was 520 killed, wounded out of 1032 all told.

Brigade Northern Division, Royal Field Artillery. Official correction to the regimental number.

Medal and both clasps confirmed. The recipient first appeared under the alias 20418 'James Curdon' serving

with No 9 Mountain Battery, 1st Brigade, Northern Division, Royal Artillery, on the medal roll for 'Burma

1885-1887', and later under his true name, 20418 James Kelly, then serving with 3rd Mountain Battery, Royal

Artillery, for the 'Sikkim 1888' clasp (reference WO 100/74).

James Kelly was a native of Donaghmore, Castlefinn, Donegal, Ireland, where he was born circa 1855. At the

time of his attestation for the British Army at Omagh, Ireland, on 18 March 1877, James, then 18 years of age

and by occupation a 'Labourer' was posted to join the Scots Fusilier Guards.

For some reason he did not take to soldiering with the Scots Fusilier Guards, and 'Deserted' from that corps

on 30 October 1878. James Kelly was not however finished with the British Army, and he subsequently

enlisted (while still a deserter) under the name 'James Curdon' as a Gunner in the Royal Regiment of Artillery.



381cont. James's earlier desertion was eventually detected, but he was allowed to continue his service - with initial

forfeiture of former service - in the Royal Artillery (service papers refer). In total James Kelly (alias James

Curdon ) served a total of 20 years and 49 days, including more than 5 years overseas service in Aden Colony,

23 February 1884 to 10 December 1884 (291 Days), and India, 11 December 1884 to 25 April 1889 (4 years

136 days)

His campaign service in that time included Burma 1886-87, and latterly as a 'Mountain Gunner' with the

Sikkim Field Force 1888-89 (Medal with two clasps). At the time he took his final discharge from the British

Army at Edinburgh, on 30 April 1897, his character was described as having been 'Very Good'. His intended

place of residence on leaving the British Army was cited as being, 13 Yeaman Place, Edinburgh, Scotland.

The National Census for Scotland shows James living with his wife Margaret Kelly still living at the aforesaid

address, his employment described as being a 'Messenger' for the Army Staff Office.

days doing hard labour for smuggling what appears to be a monkey on board. Throughout his time in the Navy

labour for absence, 42 days hard labour for breaking out of ship, and a period for desertion from 10 to 25 May
