He was born at Plymouth on 27 February 1812. In May 1825 he entered the Royal Naval College at Portsmouth, and on passing out in December 1826 was shortly afterwards appointed to the Thetis, a 46-gun frigate, going out to the South American station. He was still in the Thetis when she was wrecked on Cape Frio on 5 December 1830. It was Mends's watch at the time the ship struck, but as the night was dark and thick and it was raining heavily, he was held guiltless, the blame falling entirely on the Captain and Master. Mends was considered to have behaved very well in a position extremely difficult for one so young and inexperienced, and several of the members of the court offered to take him with them. After passing his examination he joined the Actæon in the Mediterranean, which in 1832 was at Constantinople when a Russian army of upwards of twenty thousand men was there, consequent on the terrible defeat of the Turks by Ibrahim Pasha at Konieh. The intervention of the Western Powers demanded the withdrawal of this force, and Mends was deeply interested in watching its embarkation, making careful notes of their manner and methods of embarking the cavalry and guns. Men, horses, and guns, with all their stores and baggage, were got on board within 12 hours, and Mends treasured up the experience for future use. In the summer of 1834, the Actæon returned to England and was paid off; in January 1835, Mends was appointed to the Pique with Captain Henry John Rous. In July the ship was sent out to Canada, and on the homeward voyage, on 22 September, it struck heavily on a reef off the coast of Labrador. After several anxious hours she was got off, and, though she was much damaged and leaking badly, and her main and mizen masts were badly sprung, Rous determined to proceed. Five days later her rudder, which had also been injured, was carried away, and the ship left helpless in a heavy westerly gale. With admirable seamanship she was steered for several days by means of a weighted hemp cable towed astern and controlled by a spar lashed across the ship's stern. It was not until 6 October that they were able to ship a jury rudder; and on the 13 they anchored at St. Helen's after a voyage that has no parallel in the annals of the nineteenth century. Mends then learnt that he had been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 11 August. In December he was sent out to join the Vernon at Malta. A year later he was moved into the Caledonia and then to the Rodney. In July 1838, he went to be Flag-lieutenant of Sir John Louis, the second in command on the station and superintendent of Malta dockyard. He continued with Louis, sometimes afloat, but mostly at Malta, until July 1843. From November 1843 he was in the Fox frigate with Sir Henry Blackwood on the coast of Ireland and in the East Indies; on 2 January 1847, he received the news of his promotion, on 9 November 1846, to be Commander. In January 1848 he was appointed to the Vanguard, in which, a couple of months later, he had the misfortune to lose some of the fingers of his left hand, which was carried into a block and badly crushed. It was this, more than the loss of the fingers, which caused trouble; and for years afterwards he suffered from severe attacks of neuralgia. The Vanguard went home and was paid off in March 1849. In July 1850, Mends was appointed to the Vengeance, again with Blackwood, who died after a short illness at Portsmouth on 7 January 1851, and was succeeded by Lord Edward Russell. Towards the end of the summer the Vengeance went to the Mediterranean, but came home in December 1862, when, on 10 December, Mends was advanced to post rank in acknowledgement of the excellent order the ship was in. In October 1853 he was selected by Sir Edmund (afterwards Lord) Lyons to be his Flag-Captain in the Mediterranean, if Captain Symonds, then in the Arethusa, should prefer to remain in the frigate. If Symonds should prefer to join Lyons, it was understood that Mends should have the Arethusa; Mends accordingly took the Agamemnon out and joined the fleet in the Sea of Marmora on Christmas Eve, when, as previously arranged, he took command of the Arethusa. In her he took a particularly brilliant part in the bombardment of Odessa on 22 April 1854: 'we stood in twice,' Mends wrote, 'tacked close off the Mole and engaged the works on it in reverse . . . pouring in a destructive fire as we went about.' He was promptly recalled by the Commander-in-Chief, who seems to have considered that he was needlessly risking the ship. 'I expected a reprimand when I went on board the Admiral to report, but the enthusiasm of the fleet and the cheers given to us as we passed along the lines mollified the chief, and I was simply told not to go in again.' The French officers who had witnessed the manoeuvre called on Mends to compliment him on it; and many years afterwards a French writer in the 'Revue des Deux Mondes' referred to it as a brilliant tour de force. In June, Lyons and Symonds had found that they did not get on well together, and it was proposed to Mends to re-exchange into the Agamemnon, which he did. From that time his individuality is lost in that of the Admiral, except that, as chief of Lyons's staff, he had the direction of many points of detail on which much depended. By far the most important of these were the embarkation of the troops at Varna and the subsequent landing of them in the Crimea on 14 September. The whole thing was admirably done without a hitch and without loss; and though, to the world at large, it appeared to be done by Lyons, Lyons himself and the Navy fully recognised that the credit belonged to Mends. In February 1855, Lyons moved his flag to the Royal Albert, with Mends accompanying him. In all the operations of the year he had his full share; he was nominated a C.B. on 5 July, and in December was ordered to take the ship to Malta, the Admiral remaining in the Black Sea with his flag in the Caradoc. While crossing the Sea of Marmora, the stern-gland (the metal bearing of the screw-shaft as it passes through the stern-post) gave way, and an alarming rush of water followed. During the next day the ship pursued her voyage, the engines pumping the water out, but on 28 December Mends decided that it was necessary to beach the ship, which was cleverly done in Port Nicolo, in the island of Zea. There a cofferdam was built inside round the hole, and, the ship's safety being thus secured, she proceeded to Malta under sail, and arrived there on 7 January 1856. Mends continued in command of the Royal Albert till March 1857, when he was appointed to the Hastings, guardship in the Mersey, from which, four years later, he was appointed Deputy-Controller-General of the Coastguard at the Admiralty. He held this office for about a year...

Byrsa who rescued two cranes under close range enemy mortar fire at Toulon Docks Distinguished Service Medal, G.VI.R. (P.O. Rigger J. J. Wright. C/JX. 583600) mounted on original investiture pin; 1939-45 Star; Africa Star; Italy Star; France and Germany Star; War Medal 1939-45, extremely fine (6) £1,400-£1,800 --- D.S.M. London Gazette 27 March 1945: ‘For distinguished service and gallantry during the invasion of the South of France - Petty Officer John Joseph Wright, C/JX. 583600.’ The original recommendation states: ‘On 24 August 1944 in a narrow street approaching Toulon docks two mobile 15 ton cranes in Wright’s charge became the target of close range enemy mortar fire. One crane was immediately hit, but Wright first turned the undamaged crane and then in full view of the enemy ran back and turned the other and brought it to safety. His outstanding courage and coolness undoubtedly saved these valuable and irreplaceable pieces of equipment.’ Description of action on recommendation dated 6 December 1944: ‘Operation “Dragoon”. Moving up of advanced salvage parties and equipment from the landing beaches to points of Toulon and Marseilles.’ John Joseph Wright was a skilled mechanic who volunteered and joined the Royal Army Service Corps at Chatham on 25 October 1939, and was sent as a driver to Egypt on 12 November 1939, at Abbassie Barracks, Heliopolis. He was driver to Generals Wilson, Stone, O’Connor and Sir James Marshall Cornwall and served in Egypt, Corsica, Italy, Southern France, Belgium and Germany. On 7 December 1942 he volunteered for the Royal Navy and was accepted. He was posted to the Royal Navy Fleet Salvage branch and was in a party of 30 Officers and men of H.M.S. Byrsa during the invasion of Southern France, holding the rank Petty Officer Rigger (crane driver). There were two of these 15 ton vehicles, the other driven by his brother. After the landings they were held up by a German Fortress at St. Tropez and were under heavy mortar fire. His brother was in trouble with his crane, so he drove to him and let him drive his vehicle, whilst under fire he got the other one started. He picked up two men from the Salvage Fleet, who were sheltering from mortar shells, and took them to safety. He finished his service on H.M.S. Lynx. After the war he lived at his home town of Strood, Rochester, and worked for some time at Chatham Dockyard. Sold with some copied research.

At the centre are a group of army officers, enlisted men and a Royal Navy able seaman. The motto ‘Defence not Defiance’ was used by the Volunteer Force in Britain from 1859, and a number of the illustrations allude to Volunteer battalions being featured. The handkerchief is hemmed to 2 of the 4 edges. Approximately 62cm x 61cm Condition: generally good.

The historically important Great War Victory Medal awarded to Colonel T. Sinclair, Army Medical Service, who personally conducted the first post-mortem examination of Baron Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen in a hanger of No. 3 Squadron, Australian Flying Corps, just hours after he was extricated from the wreckage of his red triplane, near Corbie, on 21 April 1918 Having analysed the pathway of a single .303 bullet through the Baron’s torso using a rudimentary piece of wire, it was Sinclair’s report which gave considerable weight to the argument that the fatal shot came from a trailing aircraft, rather than the ground - thus, the Canadian Pilot, Captain A. R. Brown, was officially credited with the ‘kill’ shortly after receiving a Bar to his D.S.C. Victory Medal 1914-19, with copy M.I.D. oak leaves (Col. T. Sinclair.) mounted on contemporary wearing pin, better than very fine £500-£700 --- ‘Copy extracts from A. H. File No. 21/13/506 In the Field 22nd April 1918. We have made a surface examination of Captain Baron von Richthofen and find there are only the entrance and exit wounds of one rifle bullet on the trunk. The entrance wound is on the right side about the level of the ninth-rib, which is fractured, just in front of the posterior axillary line. The bullet appears to have passed obliquely backwards through the chest striking the spinal column, from which it glanced in a forward direction and issued on the left side of the chest, at a level about two inches higher than its entrance on the right and about in the anterior axillary line. There was also a compound fracture of the lower jaw on the left side, apparently not caused by a missile – and also some minor bruises of the head and face. The body was not opened – these facts were ascertained by probing from the surface wounds.’ Thomas Sinclair, Colonel AMS, Consulting Surgeon IV Army, B.E.F. Thomas Sinclair was born in Belfast in 1858. Credited by the Ballymena Weekly Telegraph as ‘one of the most outstanding Ulstermen of his generation’, Sinclair graduated with distinction from the Royal University of Ireland and became Professor of Surgery at Queen’s University in 1886. Appointed surgeon to the Royal Victoria Hospital and consulting surgeon to the Ulster Hospital for Children, the Forster Green Hospital, and the County Antrim Infirmary, Sinclair spent the next thirty years training a generation of medical students in the art of surgery - indeed, under his tutelage, the Belfast School of Modern Surgery came to be regarded as one of the most advanced in the British Isles. Volunteering for active service at the outbreak of hostilities, Sinclair served as Colonel in Egypt from 15 November 1915, before being transferred to the Western Front as Consulting Surgeon to the Fourth Army, which at that time was commanded by that other distinguished Ulsterman, Lord Rawlinson. Decorated with the C.B., ‘in recognition of work well and faithfully done on various fighting fronts’, Sinclair was further Mentioned in Despatches on 4 January 1917 whilst serving as Consultant. However, quite by accident and pure circumstance, it was from Headquarters on a sunny spring day in 1918 that Sinclair received the order to proceed immediately to a small hangar at Poulainville aerodrome on the Somme; awaiting his inspection lay the body of one of the most dangerous foes of the Great War. Controversy remains to this day as to who exactly fired the fatal shot which killed the Red Baron. During the autopsy it was noted that Sinclair used a piece of wire, rumoured to be fence wire, to track the path of the bullet, rather than a more appropriate smooth and rounded apparatus. Such a crude improvisation laid open the opportunity for error and inaccuracy, but it is widely accepted that this first report remains the most important piece of evidence to this day which addresses the circumstances of death and factual wounds, more-so given that the infamous red Fokker Dr.I. 425/17 triplane was scavenged within hours for souvenirs. Sinclair’s conclusions however, remain contested, especially following recent analysis of the path of the machine gun bullets fired from the trenches by Sergeant Cedric Popkin of the 24th M.G.C., 1st Australian Imperial Force. Elected to the Ulster Senate representing Queen’s in 1921, Sinclair was later honoured as Founder of the Modern Ulster School of Surgery and is remembered via a large and impressive oil portrait by George Harcourt, R.A., which hangs to this day in the Great Hall of Queen’s University, Belfast. His acceptance speech was particularly humbling: ‘What a sustaining and consoling thought it is to me that so many warm friends consider that I have not altogether lived in vain, but have been enabled in some degree to alleviate or assuage the heavy burden of human suffering throughout the years.’ Sinclair died of illness on 5 November 1940.
