These gold medals were awarded as the result of a bounty of ?500 offered by Sir Charles Wakefield to the first gun crew to shoot down a Zeppelin on domestic soil. Due to the fact that a number of gun crews were involved in shooting down the L15, it was decided that the money would instead be spent on the production of gold medals to present to each individual member of the crews involved. The Zeppelin L15 was severely damaged by anti-aircraft fire over London on the night of 31 March - 1 April, 1916. The Zeppelin plunged into the sea a mile from the Kentish Knock Lightship shortly after midnight. The 17 survivors were taken aboard H.M.S.

Accompanied by copies of his Service Records, Combats in the Air Reports, assorted research papers and two photographs.\n \nFootnote: Charles Leonard Elliott Geach occupation in civil life was that of Stock Dealer, a member of the London Stock Exchange. His next-o-kin listed on his Will was his wife, Mrs. Leonard Geach of Bettany Cottage, Bray on Thames, Berkshire. He was commissioned on August 24, 1914 at Aldershot, coming over from the 1 Reserve Regiment Cavalry. He soon found himself that September with the 5th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) Dragoon Guards and stayed with them until July 28, 1915. He was a Second Lieutenant (on probation), when he relinquished his commission and joined the Royal Naval Air Service. While with the the RNAS, he earned his Aviator's Certificate, number 1891, which was granted on October 16, 1915. He served with the RNAS in France, with the Dunkirk Seaplanes, the North Sea Patrol Seaplanes and the Dunkirk Patrol. A series of Confidential Reports issued while he was with the RNAS states the he was \"qualified as a Seaplane Pilot (March 20, 1916), A good Pilot and very promising Officer (April 1, 1916), A good Pilot \u0026amp; Executive Officer, but lazy (June 30, 1916), Strongly recommended for promotion (March 1, 1917), Good Pilot \u0026amp; very good Executive Officer (April 1, 1917).\" He went home in December 1916 and remained with the RNAS until April 1917, when he was transferred to the Royal Flying Corps. His path to the RFC was a slow one, as his original application in late 1916 was not approved. On January 15, 1917, he took the place of Flight Commander H.A. Buss as Ferry Pilot while with the RNAS. He again applied for permission to transfer to the RFC on March 3, 1917. This time, it was noted on April 2, that his application was met with no objection. A submission was put forward to terminate his appointment with the RNAS upon transfer to the Royal Flying Corps, with his commission and appointment terminated on transfer to the Army on April 26, 1917 and had now been promoted to Captain. He was appointed Flight Commander on January 1, 1918 and remained in England until being sent overseas on March 25, 1918. Included with his paperwork are two \"Combats in the Air\" reports. The first is dated June 12, 1918 and describes an encounter he has over Compiegne, France, armed with two Vickers guns: \"About 12:15 p.m. I was turning towards COMPEIGNE in order to abandon Patrol and return home when my formation was attacked by from 12 to 15 Fokker Biplanes. One of these was on Lieut. Young's Tail and shot him down, at least I saw smoke coming out of it, although I did not actually see it in flames. I dived on this E.A. and fired a long burst with both guns. E.A. broke up in air. This machine is confirmed by a Flight Commander (Phillips P) of No. 8 A. F.C. I was subsequently attacked by 3 E.A. and forced to spin to the ground, one of which followed me down to 1500 feet where I had a scrap with him over MARGEY near COMPEIGNE but he got away. I saw Lieut. Arundel's machine on its back on the ground alongside COMPEIGNE Road. and was able to see that the Pilot was O.K.\" The second report is undated and describes an adventure he had while with No. 43 Squadron: \"I was leading top formation of No. 43 Squadron as 4 or 5 E.A. dived on the tail end of my formation. I turned to go to the assistance and just after an Albatross dived steeply underneath going S.W. I got on his tail and dived after him and gave him a burst from both guns. I was right on his tail and his machine filled my Aldis Sight. He then continued down diving vertically in a South Westerly direction. This machine was seen to dive beneath me by Lieut. Bloomfield.\" Geach was awarded with the Air Force Cross on June 3, 1919 for his exception efforts during the war, which is not included with his BWM. He was also an avid car enthusiast, who enjoyed competitive automobile racing. Before the war, he is listed as having participated in an Easter Meet on April 17, 1911 (declaration handicap of 10.5 miles, placing first with a 80 hp Mercedes, a May 1911 Meet (sprint race, placing third with a 90 hp Mercedes), an Easter Meet on April 8, 1912 (Easter Handicap for private competitors of 5.75 miles, placing third with a 45 hp Mercedes and a 100-mph handicap of 8.5 miles, placing second with a 45 hp Mercedes). He was a member of the Hampshire Automobile Club Team, behind the wheel of a Vauxhall, when they took home the Brooklands Trophy as champions of the Royal Automobile \u0026amp; Associated Clubs' Inter Club Meeting and Gala Day on May 31, 1913. After the war, he continued to race automobiles and almost met his maker at one race. An article published in the London Times on June 21, 1920, reporting on a motor race held at the Brookland race circuit entitled \"Captain Geach's Narrow Escape\" describes the accident: \"A most successful meeting at Brooklands on Saturday came near to being marred by tragedy. Driving the scratch car, the six-cylinder Sunbeam, in the fifth race, Captain. C.L.E. Geach had a narrow escape from death. At the further end of the railway straight, just opposite the aeroplane sheds, his car, which was probably doing over 100 miles an hour, swerved violently off the banking, skidded right across the track, turned completely over -- accordingly to some accounts twice or three times -- and pitched its driver into the sewage farm, where his fall was, fortunately, well broken. Captain Geach suffered nothing worse than bruises, and a slight concussion, and at the close of the meeting declared himself fit to drive home. The cause of the accident is not yet known, although the probabilities point to a burst tire. Spectators who were watching the race from the members' bridge saw the car skid badly from high up on the banking across the track. Captain Geach, however, regained control, and emerged on the railway straight apparently going well. A few seconds later the car again was seen to skid broadside to the track, and then to overturn in a cloud of dust. It was a great relief to the spectators when, later, the rescue car drove into the paddock carrying the driver unhurt.\" He is also credited in the Royal Aero Club Aerial Derby in 1920, as an \"Observer at Turning Points\" and is documented as being in a creditor's petition in Bankruptcy that was filed on June 30, 1921.","brand":"eMedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109743513877,"sku":"GB3600","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/9105\/2053\/files\/img_10_b97f35df-bc80-4361-878c-c05490d16ca0.jpg?v=1692840703"},{"product_id":"government-of-ceylon-war-medal-1914-1919-gb3040","title":"Government Of Ceylon War Medal 1914-1919","description":"Government of Ceylon War Medal 1914-1919 - Bronze, obverse illustrating a right-facing, seated, classically robed and laureate female figure representing Ceylon, bestowing a laurel wreath crown upon a kneeling soldier with her right hand, his head bowed. the sea with a multi-rayed blazing sun on the horizon behind them, inscribed \"..PRESENTED..

Toward the end of 1915 he was forced to land behind the German lines and captured, spending more than two years as a POW before he escaped to France in early 1918. Later that year, Grinnell-Milne assumed command of 56 Squadron and scored 5 more victories as an S.E.5a pilot in the final weeks of the war. In 1919 and 1920, he served with 214 Squadron and 14 Squadron in Egypt. After serving as assistant Air-Attache in Paris, he left the Royal Air Force in 1926 with more than 2000 hours of flight time in various aircraft. During World War II, Grinnell-Milne returned to service, flying Wellington bombers over Libya in 1940 before health problems forced him out of the RAF.

Footnote: Charles James Lyon was the son of Walter F.K. and Isabella R. Lyon of Tantallon Lodge, North Berwick, Scotland. He was Mentioned in Despatches, as it was noted that he was Killed in Action, on November 13, 1914, at the age of 24, at the First Battle of Ypres, as stated in the Glasgow Herald of December 9, 1914, \"News has been received at North Bewick that Lieutenant Charles James Lyon, 1st Battalion Royal Scots Fusiliers, was killed in action near Ypres on November 14. He was the fifth son of the late Mr. Walter Lyon, and of Mrs. Lyon, Tantallon Lodge, North Berwick. Lieutenant Lyon, who was Acting-Adjutant of his battalion, was only 24 years of age, and joined the Royal Scots Fusiliers in 1909 after having passed from Haileybury College into Sandhurst. The death of Lieutenant Lyon is all the more pathetic owing to the fact that one of his brothers, Lieutenant Alexander Patrick F. Lyon, 1st Battalion Gordon Highlanders, was killed at Bertry, in France, on August 27. The Latter, an Army interpreter, was making inquiries in the front of a half battalion which had mistaken the German lines for the French and was killed during the firing which ensued.\" Lyon is remembered with honour on the Menin Gate Memorial (Panel 19 and 33) which is situated at the eastern side of the town of Ypres (now Ieper) in the Province of West Flanders, Belgium, on the road to Menin and Courtrai. It bears the names of 55,000 men who were lost without a trace during the defence of the Ypres Salient in the First World War.","brand":"eMedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46110096261397,"sku":"GB1984","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/9105\/2053\/files\/wwi_1914_star____50855c26710ea.jpg?v=1692843931"},{"product_id":"wwi-victory-medal-royal-higlanders-gb1985","title":"Wwi Victory Medal - Royal Higlanders","description":"WWI Victory Medal - (S-24415 PTE.
