The son of Major Peile of Broomhill, Inverness-shire, Scotland. Peile entered the Royal Naval College as a Cadet in January 1895, and having passed out was appointed Midshipman for service with H.M.S. Resolution in February 1897. Subsequent service included with H.M. Ships Powerful and Mars, and Peile advanced to Sub Lieutenant in August 1900. He was appointed to the command of the torpedo boat destroyer H.M.S. Brazen in May 1901, and advanced to Lieutenant in October the following year. Peile was appointed Navigating Lieutenant to H.M.S. Torch in March 1903, and having served with the her on the Australian Station for three years returned to be based at Devonport. He was appointed as an instructor at H.M.S. Dryad (navigation training school), and was awarded the Shadwell Testimonial Prize in 1906. Peile subsequently served at H.M.S. Cornwall (training ship for naval cadets), and advanced to Lieutenant Commander in October 1910. He studied German, and qualified as an interpreter in 1912, before being posted for War Staff and Intelligence Duties at the Admiralty and then lent to the War Office for similar duties.

An outstanding Second War ‘Anzio Beach-head’ Immediate M.C. group of six awarded to Major J. E. Rolo, 1st Battalion, The Buffs Military Cross, G.VI.R. reverse officially dated 1944; 1939-45 Star; Africa Star, 1 clasp, 8th Army; Italy Star; France and Germany Star; War Medal 1939-45, with M.I.D. oak leaf, together with original M.I.D. Certificate, dated 13 January 1944 (Captain (T/Major) J. E. Rolo, The Buffs (Royal East Kent Regiment)) extremely fine (6) £1,200-£1,600 --- Provenance: The Robert F. Brett Collection of Medals to the Buffs, Dix Noonan Webb, September 1999. M.C. London Gazette 20 July 1944: ‘In recognition of gallant and distinguished services in Italy.’ The original recommendation for an Immediate M.C. states: ‘For outstanding leadership and bravery in the Anzio Beach-head on 3rd March 1944. Major J. E. Rolo’s gallant conduct is strongly recommended for an award. The Buffs were holding 2,000 yards front East of the Flyover Bridge when it became known that the enemy was occupying a house with infantry, supported by tanks 500 yards in front of and threatening the left forward company. At 19.35 hours Major Rolo led his raiding-party of 40 men (2 weak Platoons of “A” Company) through our own wire on a dark and very wet night after being heavily shelled in his assembly area. Supported by an Artillery programme fired by 180 guns he saw the house after going 1,200 yards by compass. The party approached the house from the rear or north at 20.15 hours over deep shell holes full of mud in which his men floundered with their weapons. When at 20 yards from the house the enemy opened up with two machine guns from ground level and with automatics from the upper windows. As a result of the mud it was found that only one Bren out of six, and one Tommy Gun, could return fire, and the attacking party was at a loss how to act. Without hesitation Major Rolo used his voice and led his men straight for the house and surrounded it, himself receiving a bullet in the leg at ten yards range. It was on his orders that the one Bren silenced the machine gun at the door enabling several men to get into the house and force the enemy to the upper storey, and it was his calm orders which directed the throwing of grenades through the upper windows. After 20 minutes on the objective, when only one automatic was still being fired from the house, enemy machine-guns opened from across the road to the NW and the expected counter attack seemed probable. Major Rolo rallied his men and after going 200 yards was rewarded by the surrender of twelve prisoners from slit trenches. He made the prisoners carry our own wounded, and ignoring his own wound brought the whole raiding party back to our lines. The raid identified a new enemy unit on the front [146th Grenadier Regiment of 65 Division], and on reports from subsequent prisoners killed 30 Germans including the only two officers who were in the house. Two of our officers and seven men (one since died) were wounded. The success of this action was due largely to the personal inspiration of its leader, whose conduct in action was of the same high order in both the Libyan and Tunisian campaigns.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 13 January 1944: ‘In recognition of gallant and distinguished services in the Middle East.’

A Great War ‘Western Front’ D.C.M. and M.M. group of five awarded to Sergeant W. France, 1st Battalion, East Kent Regiment Distinguished Conduct Medal, G.V.R. (G-12873 Sjt: W. France. M.M. 1/E. Kent R.); Military Medal, G.V.R. (12873 Sjt: W. France. 1/E. Kent R.); British War and Victory Medals (G-12873 Sjt. W. France. E. Kent R.); Defence Medal, unnamed, edge bruising and contact marks, otherwise nearly very fine (5) £1,800-£2,200 --- D.C.M. London Gazette 12 March 1919; citation published 2 December 1919: ‘In the attack near Vaux Andigny on the 17th October, 1918, he showed great pluck and initiative in command of a platoon. His men being held up by barbed wire, he went forward under heavy machine-gun fire, cut the wire and, leading the platoon forward, captured the gun. Later in the fight he worked round the flank of the company with three men in order to deal with a nest of machine-guns, and succeeded in capturing the post. Throughout the action he behaved most gallantly.’ M.M. London Gazette 26 April 1917. Walter France was conscripted in late 1915. He was awarded the Military Medal for bravery during a German raid on the 1st Battalions trenches in the village of Loos on 18 March 1917, when they succeeded in getting a footing in them, but after a short time were ejected leaving 7 dead. The Regimental History adds “but we lost one 2nd Lieut. and 10 men killed and 1 and 24 wounded”. The Sunderland Echo reported, “Sgt. France was in charge of a Platoon, and successfully countered a determined German assault. He received shrapnel wounds and was hospitalised in England”. The Sunderland Echo continued: “A year later he was back in the trenches in France and gained the Distinguished Conduct Medal. He recalls that he was an acting C.S.M. when his company was ordered “over the top” to make an assault on a German position. He said, “we reached our objective with some loss of life but it is something one doesn't care to talk about”. This was at Vaux Andigny, 10 km. south of Le Cateau. The Regimental History relates, “The morning was one of the foggiest that had been experienced during the war. Nothing could be seen anywhere and direction was naturally extremely difficult to maintain. The Buffs had to pass the village in fours and to deploy outside it. The advance was made by compass bearings, and more than one instance occurred of sergeants taking the compasses from their injured officers and leading their companies on. The fog was an advantage because parties of the enemy were come upon unseen and machine guns were outflanked unobserved”. After the war he returned to Ryhope in the Durham coalfields and became a Deputy in the mines. His grandson Walter Payne (with the R.M.P in 1985) writes: “he was deeply involved in the Scouting Movement and a leading figure in the Temperance Society. However, his ability on the keyboard led him to playing the piano in pubs for cash and to his subsequent departure from the paths of abstinence”. During WW2 he became a Captain in the Penshaw, Co. Durham, Home Guard. He died in 1964.
