Wilfred Herbert Dolphin was born in Duddeston, Birmingham in May 1882. The following was provided by the Victoria Times, B.C. in 1936: ‘One of Great Britain’s pioneer aviation pilots, Wing Commander W. H. Dolphin, who recently retired from the Royal Air Force is an interesting visitor to Victoria in the course of a holiday tour of the world. Wing Commander Dolphin is visiting this continent for the first time after a life spent mostly on service in the Far East, India, Afghanistan, Mesopotamia or Iraq as it is now known. Arabia, Egypt, Palestine, Turkey and Malta, each in turn having been the scene of his activities during the last thirty years. Wing Commander Dolphin has the distinction of having worn the uniforms of all three services. Originally serving in the Royal Indian Marine, now the Royal Indian Navy, as an engineer officer, he later transferred to the Indian Army in search of more excitement, and from there was seconded to the Royal Flying Corps seeing active service with all three forces. It was in 1910, while on leave from India, that Wing Commander Dolphin made his first flight with Claude Grahame White, flying in what he describes as “a sort of flying bird cage.” He decided to master the art of flying and in May 1911, was granted his pilot’s certificate by the Royal Aero Club of Great Britain, his certificate being number 82. He associated himself with the well known pioneer of aviation, Gordon England, and the late Col. James Valentine during the early part of 1911 and had many interesting experiences with them, both in England and in France. But it was not until he was seconded for service with the Royal Air Force that he was able to make use of his knowledge of aircraft and skill as a pilot. On the formation of the R.A.F. he was gazetted to a permanent commission and has been largely concerned with the technical development of that service, although he continued active flying until shortly before his retirement last January. Among the many interesting personalities he was associated with during his R.A.F. service was Air Commodore Raymond Collishaw, the former Nanaime boy who after a distinguished career during the war is now one of the outstanding figures in the air force in Great Britain. Wing Commander Dolphin has had a career of great interest which, although arduous was full of excitement and adventure. He numbers among his many experiences life in the palaces of various Oriental rulers, expeditions against tribesmen of the Northwest Frontier, and of Kurdistan, and epic flights over inaccessible mountain country where a forced landing generally meant instant destruction, as well as tiger shoots in Bengal and big game hunting in many other parts by way of diversion. Twice mentioned in despatches, Wing Commander Dolphin has in addition to the 1914-18 war medals, the Indian Northwest Frontier medal with three clasps and the Egyptian Order of the Nile, presented to him personally by the late King Fuad of Egypt at an investiture at the Abdin Palace in Alexandria in 1922.....’ Dolphin had initially been employed as an automobile engineer, and learned to fly in a Hanriot Monoplane at Brooklands, gaining his Royal Aero Club Aviator’s Certificate, 9 May 1911. Prior to this he had spent time in India, and was a Freemason and member of the Deccan Lodge. He initially served during the Great War as an Assistant Engineer with the Royal Indian Marine, before ultimately transferring to the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Air Force (M.I.D.). Dolphin advanced to Captain in April 1918, and served as a pilot on the North West Frontier (M.I.D. for Afghanistan 1919). Dolphin advanced to Squadron Leader in June 1923, served in Egypt the following year [Order of the Nile, 4th Class], and was appointed Commanding Officer, Marine Section, Basrah, Iraq in 1926. During the latter posting he was in charge of RAF vessels using the waterways of Iraq. Dolphin advanced to Wing Commander in July 1931, and retired in January 1936. After carrying out his ‘World Tour’, Dolphin was recalled for service at the outbreak of the Second World War. He retired as Group Captain in August 1941. Sold with the following related original documentation: M.I.D. Certificate, dated 23 October 1918; Royal Aero Club Aviator’s Certificate, numbered ‘82’, dated 9 May 1911, and complete with photograph - this rare; Royal Indian Marine enclosure addressed to recipient at H.Q., R.A.F.

India General Service 1854-95, 1 clasp, Burma 1887-89 (Lt. Colonel F. Cochran 1st. Bn. Hamps. R.) good very fine £300-£400 --- Francis Cochran was commissioned Ensign in the 37th North Hampshire) Regiment of Foot on 8 July 1862, and was promoted Lieutenant on 31 May 1864, and Captain on 23 March 1866. He was appointed Brevet Major on 31 December 1878, and was confirmed in that rank on 1 July 1881, being promoted Lieutenant-Colonel on 21 April 1886. ‘In 1888, after succeeding to the command of the Regiment, Cochran had to take it to Madras en route for Upper Burma. The work there was very arduous, involving great responsibilities. It was the period after the taking of Mandalay. The whole country was in a state of ferment, and Colonel Cochran had the difficult task of organising columns to go out through the villages to capture the dacoits and subjugate the people. In 1895, Lord Wolsely paid him the following complement: “If Burma is now comparatively quiet, it is thanks to men like Colonel Cochran, who took a distinguished pat in settling the Northern part of Burma, and in putting down dacoiting - a very difficult operation, because that species of occupation seems to be the instinct of the people.” No mention of Colonel Cochran would be complete without an allusion to his wonderful feat while shooting in Burma of killing two wild elephants. He distinguished himself in sport of all kinds, including shooting for big game and the best of tiger, as well as Mahsia fishing.’ (the recipient’s obituary, taken from the Hampshire Regimental Journal, dated March 1914 refers). Relinquishing his command of the Regiment in 1894, Cochran was latterly Deputy Judge Advocate, before retiring in 1902. He died on 6 February 1914. Sold with copied research, including a photographic image of the recipient.
