An Aerial Action In Which Corporal Nott. Acting As Gunner, Drove Off A Hostile Aeroplane After Being Seriously Wounded.


An Aerial Action In Which Corporal Nott. Acting As Gunner, Drove Off A Hostile Aeroplane After Being Seriously Wounded.

While acting as gunner on escort duty, Corporal C. H. Nott, of No. 15 Squadron, Royal Flying Corps, was hit in the eye and rendered unconscious during an aerial action. On recovering his senses he at once opened fire with his gun, and succeeded in driving off the enemys aeroplane, which had pressed the attack. His machine was riddled with shot and otherwise damaged, but without his magnificent pluck all would have been lost. For his conspicuous gallantry Corporal Nott was awarded the D.C.M.

Outbound from Mildenhall by Ivan Berryman.		 During the years of the German occupation of Holland in World War II, more than 20,000 Dutch civilians perished through starvation and lack of basic provisions. Operation Manna was set in motion on Sunday, 29th April 1945 when Lancasters of the Royal Air Force began the first of 2,835 sorties, dropping 6,672 tons of food, to relieve the crisis in the Netherlands. These humanitarian missions continued until 8th May, saving many thousands of civilians from certain death by starvation and malnutrition. Here, Lancaster 4K765, LS-Z of 15 Sqn piloted by Flying Officer Jack Darlow, releases its precious cargo over a sports field north of The Hague. Also in the crew was Alistair Lamb the Rear Gunner.
