Tribute to Leonard H Rochford by Ivan Berryman.


Tribute to Leonard H Rochford by Ivan Berryman.

Recording 18 individual victories plus another 11 shared with other pilots, Leonard 'Tich' Rochford scored most of his victories in the Sopwith Camel. However, under the stewardship of the more experienced Raymond Collishaw - who became the second highest scoring Candian Ace of the war - he flew his early missions with No.3 Naval Air Squadron in the Sopwith Pup. He had forced two Albatros down out of control in March and May 1917 before the victory depicted here on 7th July 1917. In Sopwith Pup N6162 he shared in the destruction of an enemy seaplane with 4 other pilots north of Ostend. He is one of the top 30 Commonwealth Aces of the war, and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and Distinguished Service Cross with Bar. He died in 1986 aged 90.

 One of the most notable pilots of 3 Squadron was the Frenchman Pierre Clostermann who enjoyed much success flying Spitfires with the Free French 341 <i>Alsace</i> Squadron before moving to 602 and 274 Squadrons RAF.  Once on the strength of 3 Squadron, however, he quickly got to grips with the mighty Hawker Tempest V in which he downed two Focke-Wulf Fw.190D-9s on 20th April 1945, just two of the confirmed 12 aircraft destroyed whilst flying the Tempest, plus 6 shared and two probables.  He is shown here flying Tempest V NV724, bearing the legend <i>Le Grand Charles</i> and the Squadron badge on the tailfin.

 With a final 47 victories to his credit, Robert Alexander Little was one of the highest-scoring British aces of World War 1, beginning his career with the famous No 8 (Naval) Squadron in 1916, flying Sopwith Pup N5182, as shown here. On 21st April 1917, he was attacked and shot down by six aircraft of Jasta Boelke, Little being thrown from the cockpit of his Sopwith Camel on impact with the ground. As the German aircraft swooped in to rake the wreckage with machine gun fire, Little pulled his Webley from its holster and began returning fire before being assisted by British infantry with their Lewis guns. Such was the character of this great pilot who finally met his death whilst attacking Gotha bombers on the night of 27th May 1918.
