Admiralty
The following despatch has also been received from Admiral Sir
John R. Jellicoe, G.C.B., G.C.V.O.,
Commander-in-Chief, Grand Fleet:
SIR,- With reference to my
despatch
of 24th June, 1916 after full and careful consideration of the recommendations for
promotion received from Flag Officers commanding
Squadrons and Officers in command of Flotillas,
the following lists are submitted for the
favourable consideration of the Lords
Commissioners of the Admiralty.
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED FOR PROMOTION.
Commanders to
Captain.
Walter Lingen Allen. H.M.S. "Broke" was very badly damaged and
casualties very great, but the morale seems to
have been unshaken and the ship was successfully
steamed back to port.
The Hon. Arthur Lionel Ochoncar Forbes-Sempill. A very able
executive officer, who had the arrangements for
fire, repair and other parties extremely well
organised, and who was of great help throughout
the action.
Joseph Charles Walrond Henley. Admiral Sir Cecil Burney reports:
- Commander Henley rendered me very valuable
assistance as my Flag-Commander during the
action, and has done very valuable work in the
gunnery training of the squadron. He is a most
excellent and capable officer. He has served as
my Flag-Commander and Second in Command of my
Flagship during the past five years, and was of
the greatest assistance to me in the occupation
and administration of Scutari in 1913. He has
been previously recommended for promotion by me.
Edward Astley Rushton. Displayed great promptitude and powers of
leadership, especially during and after the
night action of 31 May, in which "Southampton"
suffered considerably in casualties and damage.
Was skilful and resourceful in effecting
temporary repairs in a rising sea. Strongly
recommended.
Berwick Curtis. Carried out an operation on the night of 31st
May-1 June with conspicuous skill, gallantry and
success.
George William McOran Campbell. Throughout the various actions
handled his division with great ability, sinking
an enemy destroyer with his division. Attacked
enemy battle squadron in company with flotilla,
and undoubtedly assisted in blowing up one enemy
battleship.
Arthur Goodenough Craufurd. The captain of the "Tiger" reports
that he cannot speak too highly of the valuable
and untiring work of this officer between decks
under the most painful and trying conditions.
The Hon. Reginald Aylmer Ranfurley Plunkett. Vice-Admiral Sir
David Beatty reports: "Was most valuable in
observing the effect of our fire, thereby
enabling me to take advantage of the enemy's
discomfiture."
Francis Arthur Marten. Vice-Admiral Sir David Beatty reports:
"Was of great assistance to the Commodore
throughout the action. The work of the light
cruisers was very much to be commended."
Lieutenant-Commanders
to Commander.
Guy Charles Cecil Royle. Admiral Sir Cecil Burney reports: "It
was entirely owing to his organisation and work
that the ship fired so extremely well, quickly
and accurately, during the action, especially so
after she had been struck by a torpedo and took
up a considerable list. He is a very efficient
and capable officer."
Geoffrey Charles Candy. Strongly recommended by Vice-Admiral Sir
Martyn Jerram for his work in connection with
the wireless telegraphy of the squadron.
Henry Purdon Boyd. Recommended by Vice-Admiral Sir Doveton
Sturdee for valuable work.
Richard Wyville Bromley. Remained exposed outside the conning
tower, and, in spite of being wounded in leg,
arm and neck, took his captain personal reports
of the various damages suffered and got the ship
in tow afterwards.
Paul Whitfield (now prisoner of war in Germany). In command of
"Nomad," made a most gallant attack on the enemy
battle-cruisers, after having assisted to drive
off an enemy flotilla which was endeavouring to
attack our battle-cruisers. "Nomad" was disabled
by shell fire from the enemy battlecruisers, and
subsequently sank.
Gerald Fortescue Longhurst. Gunnery officer of "Lion." This
officer controlled the fire of "Lion" with the
greatest coolness, courage and skill, and
inflicted immense damage on the enemy.
Cecil Burnaby Prickett. Gunnery officer of "Princess Royal."
Controlled the fire of "Princess Royal" under
very difficult conditions with conspicuous
success. This is the third time he has
controlled the fire of a battle-cruiser in
action. A most efficient and resourceful
officer. Strongly recommended.
Lachlan Donald Ian MacKinnon. First Lieutenant and gunnery
officer. By his zeal and skill obtained
excellent results. Under his control the firing
of the ship was accurate and rapid.
Charles Gwillim Robinson. In command of "Engadine." Was prompt in
sending up a seaplane to scout. Handled his ship
in a skilful and seamanlike manner, and towed
"Warrior" for 75 miles, subsequently succeeding
in taking off her crew, thus saving their lives.
Geoffrey Corlett. Led his division into action in a most gallant
manner and fought a successful action with enemy
destroyers, in which they were forced to retire.
John Cronyn Tovey. For the persistent and determined manner in
which he attacked enemy ships as occasion
offered, even though his destroyer was disabled
by shell fire and unable to proceed at more than
10 knots.
Robert Stedman MacFarlan. This officer's coolness, ability and
resource, especially after he had had a
miraculous escape in the torpedo control tower,
was most praiseworthy, and the fact that very
few communications and lighting failed is
entirely due to this officer's work both before
and during the action.
Stephen Dowell Tillard. Recommended for good service in action.
Errol Manners. Executive officer of "Comus" and gunnery officer
of the Squadron. An excellent officer, already
strongly recommended for promotion, who has
contributed very materially to the good gunnery
work of the squadron.
Reginald Stannus Goff. This officer reported immediately presence
of enemy. Subsequently he exhibited initiative
with success, and eventually escorted "Porpoise"
back to harbour and berthed her alongside in a
most seamanlike manner.
Clarence Walter Eyre Trelawny. This officer, by skilful handling
of his ship, managed to ram an enemy cruiser
instead of being rammed by her, thereby saving
his ship. He showed great coolness and
afterwards successfully returned to harbour with
his ship in a very damaged condition.
John Ouchterlony Barren. This officer stood by the "Shark" under
a very heavy fire, and although engine-room was
wrecked and steering gear broken down and the
ship a practical wreck, he successfully, by the
aid of "Nonsuch," returned into harbour.
Gerald Charles Wynter. Seeing "Castor" being engaged with two
enemy ships, closed them and fired a torpedo at
the second enemy ship. This was followed by an
explosion. It may be taken for certain that it
was "Magic's" torpedo that struck the second
ship in the enemy's line.
Eric Quintin Carter. Handled his ship with skill and judgment, as
is usual with this officer.
Edwin Anderson Homan. This officer handled his ship with great
skill throughout the action under difficult
circumstances.
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED TO BE NOTED FOR EARLY PROMOTION.
Lieutenant-Commanders.
Ralph Frederick Seymour (Flag Lieutenant-Commander). Sir David
Beatty reports: - Carried out his duties with
great coolness on the manoeuvring platform, and
maintained efficient communications under the
most difficult circumstances despite the fact
that his signalling appliances were continually
shot away.
Stephen St. Leger Moore. Commodore Le Mesurier reports: - This
very promising officer has served as 1st and (G)
of "Calliope" since the ship commissioned, and
has been of the very greatest assistance to me
in every way, while a large portion of the
credit due for the gunnery efficiency of the
ship is his.
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED FOR PROMOTION.
Sub-Lieutenants
to Lieutenant.
Charles Saumarez Daniel. Performed very good service as officer
in charge of a turret.
John Catterall Leach. Performed very good service as officer in
charge of a turret.
Douglas Stanley Swanston. Controlled the 6-inch guns with marked
ability, hitting the enemy destroyers, and is
believed to have sunk one.
Harry William Algernon Kemmis. For taking command and bringing
the ship back to harbour after the commanding
officer and first lieutenant had been killed.
Eric Vernon Lees. Rendered invaluable service in attending the
wounded for five hours after a shell had struck
the ship and killed two officers (one of whom
was the surgeon) and five men, and wounded
seven.
Leicester Charles Assheton St. John Curzon-Howe. In charge of
fore transmitting station and carried out his
duties in a manner specially to be commended.
Was mentioned in despatches after the action of
the Falkland Islands.
Roderick Larken Moore. Is reported by his commanding officer to
have been of invaluable assistance, taking
charge of the torpedo armament with excellent
results.
Roger Prideaux Selby. In charge of the transmitting room, the
working of which was in every way admirable.
Showed coolness in dangerous situations.
Robert Reginald Gibbons. For good service in action. He has only
recently recovered from wounds received in
action of 24th January, 1915.
Francis Adrian Blaydes Haworth-Booth. Recommended for good
service in action.
Herbert Annesley Packer. Was in charge of "A" turret during the
action, and is an extremely able officer.
Eric Sydney Brand. He was of the very greatest assistance to the
gunnery officer throughout the action.
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED TO BE NOTED FOR EARLY PROMOTION.
Sub-Lieutenants.
John Gerald Yerburgh Loveband. Performed very good service as
control officer of secondary armament.
George Sidney Godolphin Cavendish. Performed very good service as
control officer of secondary armament.
Humphrey Ranulph Brand. Strongly recommended for excellent
service.
Newton James Wallop William-Powlett. Very strongly recommended.
This officer showed wonderful coolness under
most trying circumstances, and his pluck and
cheerfulness after the ship sank was certainly
the means of saving the lives of several who
would have otherwise given in and succumbed.
Captain (D), 4th Flotilla, reports: "I cannot
speak too highly of this young officer's conduct
throughout."
Herbert Claude Millett. Strongly recommended for good service in
action.
George Evelyn Paget How. Recommended for good service in action.
Cecil Spurstow Miller. In command of the 4-inch guns' crews, most
of whom were killed or wounded. Sub-Lieutenant
Miller, himself very badly injured and burnt by
shell-fire, stuck to his work, reorganised what
was left, and set a fine example.
Mates.
Alfred Bowman. Second officer of "Y" turret. Highly commended by
his officer of the turret for good work during
the action.
Matthew McClure. In charge of forecastle group of 4-inch guns.
Wounded by a shell splinter, but continued to

_____
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED FOR PROMOTION.
Engineer
Lieutenant-Commander to Engineer Commander.
Arthur Lee Picton. Recommended for good service in action.
Engineer
Lieutenant to Engineer Lieutenant-Commander.
Geoffrey Morgan. Captain Molteno, late of "Warrior," reports : -
''Utmost gallantry and conspicuous devotion to
duty in remaining in the engine rooms after the
explosion and endeavouring to take action for
the safety of the ship, by which delay he was
imprisoned under the grating for over two hours,
and very narrowly escaped losing his life by
drowning, scalding and suffocation. Was almost
overcome when rescued. He afterwards took part
with energy and coolness in the work of salving
the ship. This officer, under the able
supervision of Engineer Commander Kitching, has
run the engine-room department extremely well,
and greatly increased 'Warrior's' steaming
efficiency."
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED TO BE NOTED FOR EARLY PROMOTION.
Engineer
Commanders.
William Toop. Rendered most valuable services after the ship was
struck by a torpedo, and his excellent work in
keeping the water under in the flooded
compartments was largely instrumental in the
saving of the ship. He is a most capable
engineer officer.
Herbert Brooks Moorshead. His zeal and ability and care of the
main and auxiliary engines and boilers
throughout the war, and coolness in action,
contributed largely to the efficient working of
the engineroom department in the action on 31st
May.
John Downie Wilson. For the great efficiency of the engine-room
department and the example he set to his
officers and men during a period of considerable
stress, steaming at between 18 and 20 knots for
four consecutive days.
Charles Frederick Dunn. Senior Engineer Commander in the 5th
Battle Squadron. The Captain of "Warspite"
reports:- "I consider that this officer is
worthy of reward, as the efficiency of his
department has proved to be excellent, and no
further remarks are necessary beyond the fact
that I was able to obtain full speed whenever I
deemed it safe, considering the damage the ship
had sustained from shell fire."
John Benjamin Hewitt. Recommended for service in action.
Engineer
Lieutenant-Commanders.
Bertram Harvey. The Senior Engineer Lieutenant-Commander in the
2nd Battle Squadron. Very highly recommended by
his Captain.
Harold Benjamin Main. Was appointed to "Canada" whilst
completing, and has carried out the duties of
Senior Engineer since the ship joined the
Squadron in a most satisfactory manner. The
Engineer Captain speaks very highly of him.
Harold Edwin Brook. For services as Senior Engineer of "Valiant,"
and largely responsible for the high speed
maintained.
Albert Knothe. The Captain of "Indomitable" reports that it is
principally due to this officer that the ship
steamed during the action faster than ever
before. A most efficient officer, strongly
recommended for promotion. Was mentioned in
Vice-Admiral Beatty's despatch after the action
of 24th January, 1915.
Arthur Ellis Lester, D.S.O. Recommended for good service in
action.
Engineer

under the Engineer Commander, for the excellent
steaming of the ship and behaviour of the
engine-room department during the action.
Temporary
Engineer Sub-Lieutenants.
Harry Hunter. Was in charge of "A" boiler-room, and kept steam
regulated under very trying conditions, with the
boiler-room full of smoke and fumes. He
afterwards went to the hydraulic engine-rooms
and endeavoured to cope with the damage to S.F.
Hydraulic E.R., and afterwards made temporary
repairs to the port telemotor pipes.
Mackenzie Dallas. By promptness and at great danger personally
assisted in directing and heading the hoses and
arresting the spread of igniting cordite.
_____
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED TO BE NOTED FOR BREVETS OR EARLY
PROMOTION.
Major Arthur George Troup, R.M.A. Recommended for service in
action.
Captain Robert Edgar Kilvert, R.M.A. Was in command of "X" turret
during the action, and as commanding officer of
the Marine detachment, is recommended as having
specially contributed to the general efficiency
of the ship.
Captain Richmond Campbell Shakespear Waller, R.M.L.I.
Vice-Admiral Sir Doveton Sturdee reports: "This
officer has served continuously in the Home and
Grand Fleet from April, 1913, and has been in
charge of the wireless organisation of a Battle
Squadron since the commencement of hostilities.
This squadron was composed of new ships of
various types which had been hurriedly completed
and the work entailed in bringing the wireless
installations of ships designed for foreign
powers' into effective working order was carried
out entirely satisfactorily. Is unceasing in his
endeavours to improve the wireless of the
squadron, and has been of valuable assistance
since I have been in command; an excellent
Marine Officer."
Lieutenant Harold Marsland Franks, R.M.A. Vice-Admiral Sir David
Beatty reports: "W/T Officer on my Staff. Showed
great skill and resource in maintaining the
vitally important wireless communications
throughout the action, despite the fact that
aerials were shot away and required constant
repair. An officer of high technical skill."
Lieutenant Henry Loftus Mitchell McCausland, R.M.L.I. The senior
marine subaltern in the squadron. Very highly
recommended by his captain.
_____
OFFICERS
RECOMMENDED TO BE NOTED FOR EARLY PROMOTION.
Fleet Surgeons.
Robert Hill, C.V.O. The principal Medical Officer of the Fleet
Flagship and on my staff. His excellent
organisation and services before and after the
action were of great assistance, and contributed
much to the well-being of the wounded.
Arthur Reginald Bankart, C.V.O., M.B., K.H.P. Has organised his
department for action in a most efficient
manner.
Alexander Maclean, M.B. Performed his exhausting duties with the
greatest zeal and courage. The medical staff was
seriously depleted by casualties. The wounded
and dying had to be dressed under very difficult
conditions on the mess deck, which was flooded
with a foot of water from damaged fire mains.
Fleet Surgeon Maclean has suffered considerably
since the action from his devotion to duty.
Ernest Alfred Penfold, M.B. Was in the fore medical distributing
station when a heavy shell burst just outside,
killing and wounding many. Fleet Surgeon Penfold
was himself knocked down and bruised and shaken,
but personally assisted in the removal of
wounded and afterwards tended the wounded with
unremitting skill and devotion for forty hours
without rest. His example was invaluable in
keeping up the morale of the wounded and of the
medical party under very trying conditions.
