A rare and important WWII D.F.M. medal group to 1115187. Sgt. D.W. Chapman R.A.F. comprising the Distinguished Flying Medal, the 1939-1945 Star, the Atlantic Star, the Defence Medal, the War Medal 1939-1945, with matching miniatures, and the Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal, also a Distinguished Flying Medal to 956072. Sgt K.P. Leach R.A.F.Sergeant Chapman was a pilot during WWII and Sergeant Leach was his navigator. Chapman joined the RAF in 1940 at the age of 20, and earned his wings after training in South Africa in November 1941. He joined 235 Squadron in 1942 and was teamed up with navigator Sergeant Leach to fly Beaufighter aircraft. Chapman was awarded his D.F.M. first, after an offensive patrol in the Bay of Biscay on 26th November 1942. They managed to destroy one enemy aircraft and damage another, but took heavy damage themselves. According to the squadron's commanding officer in his citation, despite one engine failing, with Leach giving navigational instructions from the rear of the plane, Chapman managed to continue attacking the enemy and evading their fire "until the enemy aircraft were either dispersed or shot down." In another incident in December of the same year the two managed to evade an enemy attack and crash land a damaged plane.It was during a reconnaissance mission on 2nd February 1943 off the coast of Stavangar in Norway that the battle that would earn Leach his D.F.M. took place. The crew were "jumped by two F.W.190 and attacked for twenty eight minutes." Whilst taking evasive action, Leach was wounded in the foot and Chapman in the shoulder. Despite his foot wound, Leach helped Chapman with his injury, giving him medication, whilst also issuing instructions for evading the Germans. The pair once again made it back to base with a heavily damaged plane and had to make another crash landing. When Chapman heard that command wished to give him another D.F.M., he instead insisted that it went to Sergeant Leach as he would not have been alive were it not for his actions. He said "If Ken doesn't get it, then I don't want it". When Leach passed away some years later, his family passed the medal on to Sergeant Chapman, stating that it was the only appropriate place for it. Denys Walter Chapman died in August 2012 and left instructions for his family to sell his medals after his passing.Included in the lot is a large quantity of related paperwork and ephemera including citations, recommendations, maps, a damage report for the Beaufighter after the 1943 attack, photographs, letters, birth certificate, medical history, details of sorties, books, Beaufighter pilot notes, etc. CONDITION REPORT: This collection is from the family of Sgt. D.W. Chapman and has not been tampered with in any way.
