M.M. London Gazette 13 September 1945. 'For gallant and distinguished services in Burma.'
Recommendation reads:
'Throughout the ops leading up to the capture of Tiddim wireless communication to out-lying companies
never failed. This was due in large measure to the ability and constant hard work of Naik Piar Singh, who
has acquired a skill in affecting repairs to No. 48 sets much more than expected from a regimental Signals
N.C.O. On several occasions this N.C.O. has been in charge of signal parties moving with detached
companies. Never once have his out-stations been out of touch with bn H.Q. This N.C.O. displayed his skill
and cool confidence under fire on 13 Oct, when the enemy were preparing to assault tps operating behind
the Jap position at MS 160. At this critical moment the F.O.O's wireless set was found to be out of order.
Naik Piar Singh calmly went to work and having repaired it, established communication with the guns. The
resulting fire broke up the attack and enabled the Coy to extricate itself from a dangerous situation.'

1914-15 Star; British War Medal; Victory Medal (K. 9794. Sto 1. R.N.)(3)
Stoker Francis Henry Green (1891-1970) from Bristol and a Collier by occupation, enlisted into the Royal
Navy in 1911. He remained in the Navy until his discharge into the R.F.R. in 1923.
During the Great War he served in the old battleship H.M.S. Canopus, July 1914-May 1916. In late 1914 she
was despatched to augment Rear-Admiral Sir Christopher Cradock's force that was searching for ViceAdmiral Graf Maximilian von Spee's German Far Eastern Squadron. Deemed too slow to accompany his
squadron, the Canopus was left behind when the two squadrons clashed and Cradock's force defeated at the
battle of Coronel, 1 November 1914. Left dangerously isolated, H.M.S. Canopus made her way back to Port
Stanley on the Falkland Islands. Expecting the port to be attacked by von Spee, the Canopus was beached in
the harbour. Welcome reinforcements arrived on 7 December 1914, in the form of two battlecruisers under
Vice-Admiral Sir Frederick Doveton Sturdee. The next day von Spee's squadron was sighted and H.M.S.
Canopus fired the first shot of the battle of the Falklands, an indirect shot hitting one of the enemy armoured
cruisers. This and the unwelcome sighting of the battlecruisers in harbour caused the Far Eastern Squadron
to turn from their intention to bombard the port and steam away hoping to escape. At length the battle
cruisers and attendant vessels were able to run down the fleeing German squadron and two armoured
cruisers and two light cruisers were sunk.

British War Medal; Victory Medal (J. 48635 Boy1. R.N.)(2)
Walter was a Boy 1st Class when he attested and was killed age 17 years when H.M.S. Vanguard suffered a
major explosion. HMS Vanguard was a St Vincent-class dreadnought battleship built for the Royal Navy in
the first decade of the 20th century. She spent her whole career assigned to the Home and Grand Fleets.
Aside from participating in the Battle of Jutland in May 1916, her service during World War I generally
consisted of routine patrols and training in the North Sea. Just before midnight on 9 July 1917 at Scapa
Flow, Vanguard suffered an explosion, probably caused by an unnoticed stokehold fire heating cordite
stored against an adjacent bulkhead in one of the two magazines which served the amidships gun turrets 'P'
and 'Q'. She sank almost instantly, killing an estimated 804 men; there were only two survivors. The site is
now designated as a controlled site under the Protection of Military Remains Act. One of the casualties of
the disaster was Captain Kysuke Eto, a military observer from the Imperial Japanese Navy, which was allied
with the Royal Navy at the time through the Anglo-Japanese Alliance.
In terms of loss of life, the destruction of the Vanguard remains the most catastrophic accidental explosion
in the history of the UK, and one of the worst accidental losses of the Royal Navy.

Hannoverian Medal for Volunteers of the K.G.L. 1814(2)
Appears on roll as to have been commissioned in the Hannoverian Army
There were two men of this name in the 1st Hussars Kings German legion, one who received 9 clasps which
was sold by Spink in 1976.
The second medal with 3 clasps is recorded on the original German roll as Henry Muller but when the roll
was transcribed by Colonel K.O.N. Foster he listed Henry as Herman, an easy mistake and later copied by
Mullen in his roll.
The 3 clasp medal according to The Mullen Roll was sold by Donald Hall in 1974.
A note on the original German Roll in the same script states Captain Han Army, under name and present
rank, so if he eventually became a Captain is anybody's guess, but without pulling his papers from Hannover
we shall never know. Sold with details of Lot 5179 from the renowned collection of Karl Graf Zuinnhausen
and Knyphusen, which was sold in the 1930s having I believe been slumbering in a provincial museum in
Hanover for 44 years.

under Monty when "THE KITE WENT UP" on the 10 May 1940. The same afternoon attacked by Stukas.
The guns were facing the wrong way and the Bren guns were "tidily packed away." They were therefore
soon forced to retreat. After 3 weeks and approaching the coast he was ordered to destroy the vehicles and
spike the guns. Arrived at Dunkirk and after harassing experiences returned to the UK on a destroyer. He
later fought in the Western desert with the Desert Rats, took part in the Salerno and Casino landings, landed
in France on D.Day, fought his way across Europe (earning an MID) and to complete it all he served 3 years

(77683. Pte. R.F.C.)(3)
Air Mechanic 2nd Class W. J. Bond, Royal Flying Corps, late Royal Engineers, who was killed in action
while serving as an Observer in No. 70 Squadron in April 1917, his Sopwith Strutter falling victim to "Blue
Max" holder Oberleutnant Fritz Bernert.
William James Bond was born at Lower Weston, near Bath, and enlisted in the Royal Engineers in March
1913, aged 18 years. Embarked for France as a Pioneer in the 51st Field Company, R.E., in mid-August
1914, he transferred to the Royal Flying Corps in April 1917, when he joined No. 70 Squadron, a Sopwith
Strutter unit operating out of Fienvilliers.
His appointment was short-lived, for his aircraft, piloted by 2nd Lieutenant Clive Halse, was shot down in
flames over Vaucelles during a reconnaissance flight to Cambrai on 24 April, their fate being witnessed by a
fellow squadron officer, 2nd Lieutenant N. C. Seward.
Modern references further confirm that their aircraft was one of five victims claimed in a single action that
day, the whole by Oberleutnant Fritz Bernert of Jasta 2 - a record.
Bernert had been awarded the Pour Le Merite the previous day and raised score to 28 'kills' before his death
in October 1918.
Bond was buried next to his pilot in Honnechy British Military Cemetery; sold with copied research.

His recommendation reads as follows:
‘Particulars of meritorious service for recommendation is made; Flight Sergeant CLODE as Bomb Aimer,
has carried out 28 successful operational sorties against some of the most heavily defended targets in enemy
territory, including Augsburg, Stettin, Stuttgart and Berlin (10 times) Throughout his tour this N.C.O has
displayed the greatest keenness and skill in his work. He took part in two of the precision bombing attacks
on aircraft factories in France, achieving excellent results on both occasions. The coolness and skill which
he has consistently displayed are proving by his having obtained two aiming points, two photographs and
several very near to the aiming point. The N.C.O. has shown qualities of high courage and technical ability,
which has made him an invaluable member of a fine crew, and I consider he fully deserves the award of the
Distinguished Flying Medal.' He would have probably have had second war medals as follows, 1939/45

was sent to England and was probably not even in Spain. His medal claim was made from New South
Wales in Australia.
His second set of papers start from 18th December 1820 to 20th July 1822. He was discharged due to

account of a viscural obstruction; discharged, July 1814, on the disbandment of the Regiment, after 9 years
and 50 days with the Colours.
Not listed on the roll. Edward was admitted a Chelsea in pensioner on 1st October 1849, he became an out
pensioner 1st July 1855, and was re-admitted as an in pensioner 21st June 1864, when he claimed his medal.
I do not know but I suspect that once he got settled in and saw the other Chelsea pensioners with their
medals he promptly applied himself. There is a roll of Chelsea pensioners in A.T. Mullens M.G.S. roll and
on the last page there are four names at the end of the roll under the sub- heading. Addition recommended.
Medals sent 24.5.1854.
I think Edward was without a doubt a late claim and not entered into the official roll.
I have no doubt the combination of clasps are right to the 14th, having checked the rolls many of the men
received this combination, and the regiment saw action at the first three battles.

There were three James Smiths serving with the regiment at Waterloo, one a shoemaker from Kilmarnock
who was killed in the charge so would not have been issued with a medal, the other two were from;
A Norton Lees, Wickham in Bucks, and who joined the regiment in November 1804 and was severely

One of whom lived to claim his M.G.S. two clasps, Nivelle and Nive and died on the 16th April 1848!
He left the regiment on the 26th April 1816. His Waterloo medal being issued on or about the 5th March
1816. He was born in Rowley, Staffordshire and was wounded in the leg at Waterloo.
The second man, born at St. Martins, Birmingham served two years longer than the first and would surely
have worn his Waterloo medal on many occasions over the two years extra service. He later became an In
Pensioner on 1st Oct 1843 and died (found drowned in Birmingham Canal whilst on furlough) 20th August
1845. As an In Pensioner he would have had to have kept his medal polished and worn it on many occasions
causing wear, edge bruises and digs in the field.
My feeling is that this medal belonged to the man from Rowley who left the regiment a few weeks after the
issue of his medal. The other man from St. Martins having occasion to wear his off and on for thirty years!

later. During the battle the 2nd Battalion was positioned on the right of the line with its light company
helping to defend the chateau of Hougoumont along with the light companies of the 1st Foot Guards and
Coldstream Guards. Throughout the day the defenders of Hougoumont frustrated the attacks of over 30,000
Frenchmen who failed to take the position moving one historian to write, 'probably the gallantry of the
defenders of this post has never been surpassed on any battlefield.' It was the crowning glory of their
service under Wellington. The battalion returned to London in January 1816.

Having been promoted to Second Captain in February 1814, Sinclair commanded one of the five 'Field
Brigades' of the Royal Artillery at the battle of Waterloo, his battery having been previously commanded by
Captain Frederick Gordon, who was at that time in Canada. John A. Wilson, a First Lieutenant under
Sinclair, described the activities of Sinclair's battery at Waterloo: 'At the commencement of the action
Captain Sinclair's Brigade was posted near a windmill in a field on the left of the Brussels road, and in rear
of the village of Mont-St-Jean. When we were ordered into action we proceeded along the Nivelles road,
took ground to the left, and formed on the right rear of La Haye Sainte between two and three hundred yards
in front of the footpath...The smoke was so dense that I could not see distinctly the position of the French,
being at that time ordered to direct my fire over the dead bodies of some horses in front. About three o'clock,
our ammunition being nearly exhausted, we were charged by the French Cuirassiers, who in their turn were
driven back by the 1st Dragoons (Royals). We retired behind the Squares formed in our rear...The gun on the
left without the limber having been surrounded by the enemy's cavalry, remained in their possession. Having
received a supply of ammunition, we returned to our former position and recovered the gun. We were almost
immediately ordered to the right, near Hougoumont. Whilst moving along the ground I could see the French
advancing, apparently against the right, in heavy masses of close columns. We remained in our last position
until twelve the next day. The ground on which we were posted was covered with the killed and wounded of
the Imperial Guard. A wounded officer, who lay near me, told me he belonged to that body.'

being at that time ordered to direct my fire over the dead bodies of some horses in front. About three o'clock,
our ammunition being nearly exhausted, we were charged by the French Cuirassiers, who in their turn were
driven back by the 1st Dragoons (Royals). We retired behind the Squares formed in our rear...The gun on the
left without the limber having been surrounded by the enemy's cavalry, remained in their possession. Having
received a supply of ammunition, we returned to our former position and recovered the gun. We were almost
immediately ordered to the right, near Hougoumont. Whilst moving along the ground I could see the French
advancing, apparently against the right, in heavy masses of close columns. We remained in our last position
until twelve the next day. The ground on which we were posted was covered with the killed and wounded of
the Imperial Guard. A wounded officer, who lay near me, told me he belonged to that body.'

Hugh McPhee was born at Alpin, Argyllshire, in 1784, and enlisted into the 65th Regiment at Glasgow on 6
June 1800, aged 16. After a period of two years at the Cape, he arrived in India in May 1803 and was
present at the unsuccessful siege of Bhurtpore in 1805 and several hard-fought actions in Guzerat. In 1810
he took part in the expedition to Mauritius which led to the capture of the island at the end of the year. He
participated in the third Mahratta war of 1817, including the battles of Kirkee and Poona in November 1817.
In 1819 and 1821 the 65th were engaged in two expeditions against the Joasma pirates in the Persian Gulf,
the regiment returning to England the following year. McPhee, however, seemed keen to remain in India
and, in June 1822, volunteered to transfer to the Veteran Company of the Hon. East India Company's
European Infantry. After a further three and a half years’ service he was finally discharged on 15 February

1940 Short hyphen reverse, 1 clasp, Ava. Captain J. Clarke. (Captn. J. Clarke, Brig. Maj.),
with contemporary silver slide clasp inscribed 'Arracan'.
The First Burmese War Medal awarded to Major-General John Clarke, K.H., an Ensign in the 54th Foot at
Waterloo, who was severely wounded leading the attack upon the fortified heights of Arracan in Burma.
John Clarke was appointed an Ensign in the 54th on 2 June 1814, and served with the regiment in the
campaign of 1815, including the battle of Waterloo and storming of Cambrai. Promoted to Lieutenant in
November 1821, he was appointed Aide-de-Camp to Brigadier-General William Macbean, 54th Foot, and
served in the campaign of 1824 and 1825 in Ava, including the taking of Rangoon, Kimendine, Kamaroot,
and Mahattee. He led the attack on the fortified heights of Arracan, 29 March 1825, and was severely
wounded in the neck, arm and left side.'Where the advance halted it was partly covered by a tank, and
Brigadier-General Macbean made a disposition for acquiring the principal hills in the first range at the
commencement of the pass. Four pieces of artillery were ordered forward to cover the attack, and the troops
for the assault, consisting of the light infantry company of His Majesty's 54th Regiment, four companies of
the 2nd Light Infantry Battalion, and the light infantry companies of the 10th and 16th regiments of Madras
Native Infantry, with the rifle company of the Mugh Levy, were placed under Major Kemm; a support of six
companies of the 16th Regiment, Madras Native Infantry, under Captain French of that corps, followed. The
assault commenced, and in spite of a well-directed fire and of the steepness of the ascent, which was
occasionally nearly perpendicular, many gained the summit. Lieutenant Clarke, Aide-de-Camp to BrigadierGeneral Macbean, with several of the light infantry company of His Majesty's 54th Regiment, got their
hands on the trench, but even with the assistance such a hold afforded were unable to maintain their ground;
large stones were rolled on them and smaller ones were discharged from bows; the consequence was they
were precipitated to the bottom. In this attempt the efforts were persevered till every officer was wounded.'
(Despatch of Brigadier-General J. W. Morrison, commanding South-Eastern Division)..
Clarke was promoted to Captain in August 1826; Major, December 1829; Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel,
November 1841; Lieutenant-Colonel, February 1849; Colonel, June 1854; Major-General, October 1858. He
was appointed Colonel of the 59th Foot on 9 March 1863, and died on 22 March 1865.

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.
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).†¨â€ ¨
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.

Sergeant C. Roberts, 54th Regiment. No clasp.
Sergeant Charles Roberts was on board the Sarah Sands, bound for India with 368 officers and men of the
regiment together with a number of women and children, a total of some 500 persons with the crew, when
that ship caught fire on 11 November 1857, some days after leaving Cape Town. For 18 hours the troops and
loyal members of the crew fought the fire with admirable discipline, having successfully got all the women
and children into the ship's boats, some of which had already been launched by cowardly crewmen The
regimental colours, kept in the saloon, were saved by the bravery of half a dozen volunteers who reached
them after repeated attempts. Several casks of powder blew up most of the ship aft of the mainmast but in
the process also blew away much of the burning woodwork, enabling the fire to be finally extinguished. The
uniforms of the soldiers had been almost scorched from their bodies, many had collapsed and others were
terribly burned. Not one life was lost in this disaster and the ship eventually reached Port Louis at Mauritius.
Many soldiers had been terribly burned, their uniforms having been almost scorched from their bodies by
the intense heat and flames of the fire. Of the original strength of the 54th only 151 remained fit enough to
proceed to India and earn the medal for service during the Mutiny. Sold with copied muster rolls.

Matthew is listed on the official roll for 14th December Boat Service 1814, but must have misplaced his
original and had one re-named in upright capitals. This Boat Service action took place off New Orleans. The
British prior to capturing the town had to capture and destroy the guardships which they did by capturing
one enemy ship and then attacking and destroying the rest of the ships. Less than 230 Boat Service 1814
clasps were awarded and had it been the original naming it would sell for £10,000 to £12,000, so a good gap
filler. He is the only 'Littlemore' listed in the whole of the N.G.S. roll.
