Lieut-Cmndr George H. Pownall (Cheltenham College)

25.04.15 Portsmouth Naval Memorial

HMS Egmont

 

The only clue I have as to how he was killed comes in The Naval Review (Vol XLIV no 4 Oct 1956). In an article "The Submarine Passage of the Dardanelles 1915 p424, the writer describes the disastrous landing at 'V' Beach, and describes how he later discovered that Pownall had been killed while in the leading boat during the landing.

 

"Lieut-Commander George Harley Pownall, R.N., who fell during the landing operations in the Dardanells on April 25, was the only son of Frank Pownall, barrister-at-law, and late Registrar of the Royal College of Music, and of Mrs Frank Pownall. He was educated at 'Evelyns' and at Cheltenham Collage, and subsequently went to the Britania, passing in third on the list and passing out first. He served as midshipman in China under Sir Percy Scott in H.M.S. Terrible, and on coming home took his 'five firsts'. He chose the submarine branch of the service and after serving in B1 and having the charge of the A boats at Fort Block House and serving in C9 he was eventually appointed to the Onyx at Plymouth and finally 1st lieutenant to the Egmont, with command of the Malta Submarine Flotilla. He was born on August 30, 1883. In December 1910, he married Vera, daughter of Mr Henry Chichester or Verben, Cullompton, Devon."

1st Battalion, att. to 7th Battalion, Cameronians (Scottish Rifles), 156th Brigade, 52nd (Lowland) Division - arrived at Gallipoli on 14th June

 

He was posted as 'Missing'.

 

"7th Battalion

28th June

Attack. Battn. in Bde Reserve.

Battalion provided fatigue parties nearly all night of 27th-28th (See Appendix I & II) bringing up ammunition to forward S.A.A. “Dumps”. Parties were also detailed to bring up scaling ladders & planks of timber from GULLY RAVINE to the forward trenches. One of these parties under CAPT. R. JOHNSTONE was caught in the Ravine by enemy shrapnel shell-fire & suffered 3 casualties (wounded).

At 11am however, the Battalion was in its allotted position. Soon after 11am the Batt. was sent forward to reinforce the assaulting party & their local reserves who had failed to capture the whole of their objective. 3 Platoons of “A” Coy & 2 Platoons of “D” Coy charged, gaining their objective in the Turks front line, part of H12a, “A” Coy with scarcely a casualty though “D” Coy suffered heavily from rifle, machine gun & shrapnel fire. Later, “B” Coy charged to take H12, but were caught by a battery of Turkish machine guns situated in their support lines behind H12 & only 50 men survived.

LIEUT. COLONEL J.B. WILSON was killed while leading “B” Coy in the charge. Posted as missing, but his body was recovered some months later & buried behind our lines. During the day many attempts were made by the remainder of 7th Sco. Rif. the Royal Scots & the Reserves of 29th Division (5th Royal Scots), to advance up a sap to H12a, but every attempt failed owing to shallowness of trench & enfilade machine gun fire.

BRIGADIER GENERAL SCOTT-MONCRIEFF was killed in one of these attempts to push up the sap.

PTE. R. SNEDDON “A” Coy rendered valuable service by carrying important messages to & from the captured trench. He had to cross over 100 yds. open ground under heavy rifle fire. He was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal. 2ND LIEUT E. WATSON was awarded the Military Cross for his work on this date. About 2am. 29th June those of the Batt. in the captured trenches were relieved by Hampshires & Essex & withdrawn to the Reserve Lines. Batt. reorganised."

Capt Frederick G Gudgeon (Cheltenham College)

28.06.15 Helles Memorial

16th Battalion, attached to 2nd Battalion, Royal Fusiliers, 86th Brigade

 

"When the battalion went back to the line once more, on June 23rd, they mustered 13 officers and 667 other ranks. Lieutenant Eustace commanded Y company, Captain Ayrton X and Captain Gudgeon Z. About three days later Captain FitzClarence arrived from England and took over the duties of the second in command.

On the 28th (June) the battalion again attacked, leading the brigade with three companies; and their advance, though successful, was dearly bought. They advanced about 1,000 yards, "a magnificent sight, the men never losing their formation under a heavy artillery and rifle fire." The ground had been carefully ranged and the bulk of the casualties were due to well-placed shrapnel. There were few from rifle fire; but in attempting to round off their achievement in the night the battalion became involved in hand-to-hand fighting. Few details of these encounters have been preserved ; but when the Fusiliers were relieved they were in the last stage of exhaustion. A twenty-four hours' struggle in oppressive heat with hardly any water has its unforgettable terrors.

The actual losses included nine officers: FitzClarence, Ayrton, Andrews killed ; Bulbeck, Freer and Harford wounded ; Gudgeon, Eustace and Willett missing. Of other ranks, 27 were killed, 175 wounded, and 57 missing. Not one of these officers had been with the battalion when it landed in Gallipoli, and the continuity was preserved by an ever-thinning thread. "

Extract from De Ruvigny's Roll of Honour 1914-1918:

"ONSLOW, BRIAN WALTON, Lieut., 11th (King's Edward's Own) Lancers (Probyn's Horse), Indian Army, and A.D.C. to Gen. Sir William Birdwood, yst. s. of the late Col. Gerald Charles Penrice Onslow, Royal Engineers, by his wife, Flora Frances Mary (Camperdown, Crowborough, co. Sussex), dau. of the late William Donald, of Lisle House, Cheltenham; b. Gillingham, co. Kent, 24 Aug. 1892; educ. Cheltenham College and the Royal Military College, Sandhurst; gazetted 2nd Lieut., Unattached List, 6 Sept. 1911; served his first year with the Royal West Kent Regt., passed into the Indian Army, 3 Dec. 1912, and was promoted Lieut. 6 Pee, 1913; took part in the landing at the Dardanelles, 25 April, 1915, and was killed in action there, 28 July, 1915; unm. Buried at Anzac Cove. He was mentioned in Gen. Sir Ian Hamilton's despatch of 22 Sept. [London Gazette. 5 Nov. 1915].

Gen. Sir William Birdwood wrote: “A finer fellow or better example of the true English gentleman never lived. A son of whom any mother must always have been most justly proud. Never out of temper, always doing what he could to help others, able far above the average. I had hoped a brilliant career was in store for him. Every individual here regrets and feels his death. I have lost the best and bravest of officers, the truest and trustiest of friends":

and a brother officer: "Few people could be so ill-spared. I never met or hope to meet a more lovable character; best at everything he ever did, both in work and play, and always so cheerful. I never heard anyone say anything but good of him, and he was quite the most popular officer both with the men and in the mess."

Admiral wrote from the Dardanelles: “He was a splendid young fellow. We on board only knew him for a few months, but in that short time he made himself very popular with us all. Everybody liked him and admired him, and we looked on him as the true ideal of a British soldier. I fully realise what a great loss his services must be to Gen. Birdwood and to the service generally."

And the Principal of Cheltenham College: “He has left an influence and power behind him that many an older man would be proud to leave." While at Cheltenham he won a mathematical scholarship, and was one of the most prominent members of the hockey eleven and football fifteen. He was a keen athlete, a good polo player, pigsticker, golfer, etc. Two of his brothers and two brothers-in-law are (1916) serving either in the Army or Navy. His eldest brother, Lieut.-Commander A. G. Onslow, D.S.C., was killed in action in the Battle of Jutland, 1 June, 1916."

They left Melbourne on 11 Feb 1915, as part of the 3rd Light Horse Brigade, sailing on the transport A10, Karroo They arrived in Egypt on 14th March. The Brigade landed at Gallipoli at the end of May, and was attached to the New Zealand and Australian Division. Maude's confirmation in the rank of Sergeant was dated 27 May 1915, after he had reached Gallipoli.

He was promoted to temporary 2nd Lieutenant on 7th August. The 9th LH was the reserve regiment for the Brigade's disastrous attack on the Nek on 7 August, and over the 4 days of fighting lost just 1 officer and 7 other ranks, while a further 2 officers and 26 other ranks were wounded

AWM. Since the officer killed as not Maude, then perhaps he was one of the two wounded officers, and died later.

"Medical Evacuation of Casualties

 

Unique problems were faced at Gallipoli with the treatment and evacuation of wounded and sick troops. The initial amphibious landing was a new development in the history of warfare and this meant that the medical services suffered from a lack of training, knowledge as to what to expect and the type of casualties that would be experienced. This together with lack of planning and problems with communication meant that the medical evacuation of April 25th and following days was a very inadequate service, causing much suffering and criticism on the home front."

R thời gian trôi mau bỗg xót xa khôg còn anh. Bầu trời đêm không trăg lặng lẽ ngôi sao nghẹn ngào. Giữa cơn lốc xoáy tình đời, tình thoáng mong manh mơ hồ. Nước mắt nào chợt rơi xuống, lặng nghe tiếng khóc trong đêm nụ hôn ngày xưa đã phai. Một mai thức giấc chợt nhận ra giấc mơ xưa mãi chĩ là giấc mộng đẹp. Giữa cuộc đời dông bão ai ngờ đưa lối. Một mai thức giấc tìm lại mình giữa hoang vu bõ sau lưng những muộn phiền. Những nỗi buồn hôm qua không còn đau nhói tựa gió mây trôi cuối chân trời !

Again though I'd try something totally different than i'd normally do for todays photo. Don't really know how I came up with the concept. I just started editing and then it kind of snowballed together. I spent quite a long time on this so i hope you like it!!!

I appreciate any comments good or constructive so If you've got any let me know!

Thanks.

RD25007(vid). Over the weekend 21st - 23rd April, 2023 the Bluebell Railway in Sussex held another of their 'Branch Line Weekend’ Galas; visiting for the occasion were two Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway locomotives, 0-6-0 52322 (B.R. Number) and ‘Pug’ 0-4-0ST Dock Shunter 11243 (LMS number). A third visitor was Hunslet 0-6-0ST HASTINGS. The two L &YR locos had come from the East Lancashire Railway and HASTINGS was from the Kent & East Sussex Railway.

 

I went along on the Friday and had a thoroughly enjoyable day riding on the trains and videoing from the stations. This is the third part of the video footage that I took that day and it was shot at Horsted Keynes. Locos seen are the L&YR ‘Pug’ and the L&YR 0-6-0. Further videos will feature more of the splendid steam action that took place during the day.
