Eugen Bentele Hindenburg survivor Great War Zeppelin Ace Signed The Great War 22 Limited Edition Cover. Eugen Bentele was one of 20 engine mechanics onboard the Hindenburg for its final flight. Born in Friedrichshafen on October 18, 1909, Bentele took on an apprenticeship with Maybach Motorenbau when he was 14. He spent the next four years working 52 hour weeks, learning the theory and practice of building and maintaining engines. In the four years following his apprenticeship, from 1927 through 1930, Bentele worked in various departments throughout the Maybach company, and in his last year there he worked on VL 2 airship engines, both assembling them, and testing them on a test rig. He was among the Maybach fitters who, in May of 1929, worked through the night to assemble three new VL 2's for emergency shipment to the LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin, which was stranded in France, four of its five engines broken down. In April of 1930, Bentele received a call from August Grözinger, Flight Engineer for the LZ 127. Bentele, Grözinger said, you know your way around a VL 2 engine. Do you fancy working on an airship? It was an easy decision for Bentele, and in May of 1930 he officially joined Luftschiffbau Zeppelin, at first in the Propulsion System Testing and Wind Tunnel Department. He was also supposed to act as a replacement onboard mechanic, should one of the LZ 127's usual mechanics fall ill or otherwise be unable to make a flight. Bentele waited an entire year for his chance to take part in a flight, and finally on May 12, 1931 he made his first flight as an engine mechanic. Good Condition.

Plt Off Bob Doe DFC WW2 RAF Battle of Britain Pilot signed colour print 12 x 8 inch signed in Pencil. Image of him in flying gear. After applying for a short service commission, Doe joined the Royal Air Force in January 1939. Doe trained with 15 E&RFTS Elementary & Reserve Flying Training School at RAF Redhill, Surrey and combat training with 6 Flying Training School at RAF Little Rissington. Doe was posted on 6 November 1939 to No. 234 Squadron, a Spitfire Squadron at RAF Leconfield alongside Australian Pat Hughes, who would later become an ace. Doe served with No. 234 squadron for most of the Battle of Britain. Doe claimed his first victory on 15 August 1940 when he shot down two Messerschmitt Bf 110s followed by a Messerschmitt Bf 109 and a Dornier Do 18 on 16 August, a Bf 109 destroyed of JG 52 and another Bf 109 damaged on 18 August, a half share of a KG 54 Junkers Ju 88 on 21 August and a Bf 109 shot down on 26 August 1940. In September, he added to his tally with No. 234 Squadron with three Bf 110s on 4 September, a shared JG 53 Bf 109 on 5 September, three damaged Dornier Do 17s and a Bf 109 shot down on 6 September, and a Heinkel He 111 destroyed on 7 September. On 27 September 1940 Doe was posted to No. 238 Squadron, flying Hurricanes from RAF Middle Wallop in Wiltshire, claiming his first victory for the squadron on 30 September by shooting down a KG 55 He 111. In October, Doe shot down a Bf 110 on 1 October and a Ju 88 on 7 October, the last of his 14 and 2 shared aerial victories of the battle and of the war. On 10 October, in combat over Warmwell, Dorset with some Bf 109s at 12:00, his plane was critically damaged, and he was wounded in the leg and shoulder. Doe baled out, landing on Brownsea Island while his Hawker Hurricane crashed near Corfe Castle viaduct on what is now part of the Swanage Railway. Admitted to Poole Hospital on 22 October 1940, Doe was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and received a Bar a month later on 26 November. Doe rejoined No. 238 Squadron in December 1940. In January 1941, while flying a night sortie, the oil in the oil cooler of his aircraft froze. As a result of his engine seizing he landed heavily at Warmwell on the snow covered runway, breaking his harness and smashing his face against the reflector sight, almost severing his nose and breaking his arm. Doe was taken to Park Prewett Hospital where he underwent 22 operations by pioneering New Zealand plastic surgeon Harold Gillies. Post war he was invited to join the Guinea Pig Club. On 15 May 1941 he was posted as a Flight Commander to No. 66 Squadron and then joined No. 130 Squadron on 18 August. The series of operations in a two month period and the need to bring through fresh pilots who could be trained by experienced hands, meant Doe's career as a front line fighter pilot was over for the time being. On 22 October 1941 Doe was posted to No. 57 Operational Training Unit as an instructor. On 9 June 1943 Doe went to the Fighter Leaders School at RAF Milfield and then joined No. 118 Squadron at RAF Coltishall in July. In August 1943 he joined No. 613 Squadron. In October 1943 Doe was posted to Burma as the activities on the Western Front changed from defence to attack in preparation for Operation Overlord and the invasion of Normandy; while in the East, the Japanese Army was still advancing on key British Empire assets, including India. In December 1943 Doe was tasked with forming No. 10 Squadron of the Indian Air Force, commanding it throughout the Burma Campaign until April 1945 when he joined the Indian Army Staff College in Quetta and then from August the planning staff at Delhi. On 2 October 1945, Doe received the Distinguished Service Order for his leadership of No. 10 Squadron. Good Condition. All signed items come with our certificate of authenticity.

Plt Off Terence Kane WW2 RAF Battle of Britain Pilot signed colour print 12 x 8 inch signed in Pencil. Image of him in flying gear. Terence Kane was one of the very few fighter pilots shot down during the Battle of Britain to be captured by the Germans and made a prisoner of war. On September 22, 1940 he had shared in the destruction of a Junkers 88 bomber. The following day, only nine days after joining No 234 Squadron, Kane took off on a routine patrol when Messerschmitt Bf 109s attacked his section. Kane shot one of them down but, during the combat, the engine of his Spitfire was damaged, and he was forced to bale out at 6, 000 feet. He had difficulty escaping from the fighter's cockpit but eventually managed to roll the aircraft over and fall clear. His parachute opened at 500 feet and seconds later he landed in the sea off the French coast. Floating in his life jacket, he was fortunate to be plucked from the sea within two hours by the German Navy. Terence Michael Kane was born in London on September 9, 1920 and educated at Varndean School in Brighton. He joined the RAF on a short service commission in September 1938 and trained as a pilot. After being rescued, Kane was well treated before being taken to his first PoW camp. After initial interrogation he was sent to Oflag IXA/H, a converted medieval castle at Spangenberg, 15 miles south of Kassel. With his fellow RAF PoWs, Kane was moved between camps aa number of times and on October 2, 1941 he was in a large party that arrived at Oflag VIB near Warburg. A week later another group of RAF prisoners arrived, among whom Kane recognised his elder brother, Squadron Leader Mike Kane MBE, whose Whitley bomber had been shot down two months earlier. The younger Kane was unaware that his brother had been posted as missing, or that he had already made a daring escape bid only to be recaptured when he was discovered in the hold of a Swedish ship in the docks at Lübeck. The two brothers were moved in May 1942 to the new Luftwaffe camp, Stalag Luft III at Sagan. They were sent to the East Compound, next to the one where the Great Escape took place in March 1944. On the night of January 27, 1945 the prisoners were given a few hours' notice to gather their belongings and prepare to leave. The Soviet Army was approaching from the east and the Germans had decided to evacuate the camp and march the prisoners westwards. During one of the coldest winters of the century, the men suffered great privation and numerous casualties on what became known as The Long March. Eventually, Kane and his colleagues reached Lübeck where they were liberated by a scout car of the British 11th Armoured Division. Kane was flown back to England on May 8 after four and a half years as a PoW. Kane remained in the RAF, mainly on intelligence duties including two years in the Middle East. He left the service in 1950 but could not settle to civilian life and re joined in February 1954. He specialised as a fighter controller, serving in Germany and in the United Kingdom. After a period as the defence adviser in Libya he became the project officer in the MoD for the Linesman system, a network of radars and a centralised control system for the air defence of the UK. After retiring in 1974 he worked for the Department of Environment for 10 years before managing a golf club. He remained an active golfer until late in his life. Good Condition.

Plt/Off Bill Green WW2 RAF Battle of Britain Pilot signed colour print 12 x 8 inch signed in Pencil. Image of him in uniform. Flight Lieutenant William James Bill Green 23 April 1917 7 November 2014 was a British Battle of Britain Fighter pilot, who served with the RAF. Flight Lieutenant Green flew Hawker Hurricanes for 9 days during the Battle of Britain, between the 20 and 29 August 1940. During that time he was shot down twice: the first time on 24 August 1940, crash landing at Hawkinge and the second time on 29 August over Deal in Kent. Green joined the Royal Auxiliary Air Force as an engine fitter in December 1936, and later trained as a pilot. On joining No. 501 Squadron RAF on 19 August 1940, Green had flown only about 5 hours on Hurricanes and had only flown one for the first time the day before but was sent into action regardless on 20 August 1940. Green considers himself to have been one of the least trained pilots during the Battle of Britain and lucky to have survived. The first thing Green knew of being shot down on 29 August 1940 was a large hole appearing in his armoured windscreen and he never saw the aircraft that shot him down. He managed to exit his aircraft, but his parachute initially failed to open as his drogue parachute lines had been cut about nine inches above where they joined the main parachute. His boots were ripped off his feet during the ensuing high speed fall and he remembers quite clearly wondering whether his wife of 12 weeks, Bertha, would wonder whether he had wondered what it would feel like to hit the deck. Bill had resigned himself that this was the end, but just as he neared the treetops, the parachute eventually opened without the drogue and he landed almost immediately in a farm in Elham Valley near Folkestone only to discover that he couldn't stand as he had been wounded in the leg: Two blokes came out of the farmhouse with shotguns and realised I was English. They helped me up and I couldn't stand because I'd been hit, without knowing it, in the leg. They took me back to the farmhouse and gave me a cup of tea and that was the end of the Battle of Britain as far as I was concerned. He continued to serve in the RAF, rising from the rank of Sergeant Pilot to Flight Lieutenant. Good Condition. All signed items come with our certificate of authenticity.
