Sold by Order of the Direct Descendants of the late Wing Commander N. P. Simmons, D.S.O., D.F.M. The exceptional and well-documented Second World War D.S.O., D.F.M. group of ten awarded to Wing Commander N. P. Simmons, Royal Air Force, one of just 20 men to be awarded this combination of decorations in the last war - having won his D.F.M. for deeds that included literally filling his gun sight with the mighty Scharnhorst, and scoring four or five direct hits, he won an immediate D.S.O. for similar low-level daring in an attack against Panzers in France in June 1944, this time failing to mention the fact that he had been wounded until his badly damaged Halifax had returned to base: twice interviewed by the B.B.C., and twice mentioned in despatches, he added the Chinese Order of the Cloud and Banner to his accolades in 1947 Distinguished Service Order, G.VI.R., 1st issue, silver-gilt and enamels, the reverse of the suspension bar officially dated 1944; Distinguished Flying Medal, G.VI.R.

London Gazette 19 September 1944. The original recommendation states: On 30 June 1944, Squadron Leader Simmons was flying as Air Bomber and Captain of an aircraft detailed for a daylight attack on Panzer divisions at Villers-Bocage. The final order before take-off was that the destruction of this target must be brought about at all costs. Before reaching the target area, there was a small amount of cloud, which Squadron Leader Simmons appreciated might interfere with the accuracy of the bombing, but inspite of the risk of severe flak opposition from a tenaciously held position, and the chance of the bombs from aircraft above him, Squadron Leader Simmons descended from 16,000 feet to 4,000 feet to bomb below the cloud. As was expected opposition was considerable and just after the bombing run had been completed, the aircraft was hit by flak and the Navigator wounded. Squadron Leader Simmons took him aft to the rest position, and was dressing his wounds, when another burst of flak hit the aircraft wounding Squadron Leader Simmons and the Wireless Operator. Squadron Leader Simmons finished dressing the Navigators wounds and returned to the navigation compartment, the nose of which had been blown off, to try to carry on with the Navigators work. All instruments however were unserviceable and so Squadron Leader Simmons returned to the cockpit, and assisted the pilot to make a successful landing at Ford. At no time from the moment he was hit until the aircraft had landed did Squadron Leader Simmons give any indication that he was wounded. His devotion to duty in descending below cloud in spite of considerable risk, in order to bomb a vital target, and his subsequent gallantry in spite of considerable pain and discomfort, is a splendid example to all. Since being awarded the Distinguished Flying Medal on 12 August 1940, Squadron Leader Simmons has completed 18 sorties with a total of 92 hours operational flying. He has attacked some of Germanys most heavily defended targets with complete success. As a Bomb Aimer he is outstanding, and although as a Flight Commander he has no crew, he makes a point of operating with the newest pilots in the Flight. On occasions, he has acted as Squadron Commander with outstanding ability and has proved himself not only a splendid administrator but an inspiring operational personality and leader, anxious at all times to operate and to press on against the enemy. Since joining the Royal Air Force, this officer has showed a fine fighting spirit and the keenness with which he sets out to attack the enemy is well known. I most strongly recommend him for the immediate award of the Distinguished Service Order. D.F.M. London Gazette 13 September 1940. The original recommendation states: This Air Observer has been actively engaged on operations since, and including, the first leaflet raid on the night of 3 September 1939. His crew were specially mentioned in Command Routine Orders as a result of a particularly good reconnaissance and leaflet dropping flight they carried out later in September 1939, and again after the first raid on the Scharnhorst in a Kiel dock. Sergeant Simmons, at Boscombe Down, was Navigator and Air Observer on 13 convoy escort sorties, totalling 79 hours, 20 minutes. Since his return from that area, he has been Navigator, Air Observer and Bomb Aimer on 24 bombing raids over enemy territory, totalling 161 hours, 40 minutes. This N.C.O. has always set a magnificent example to his fellow Observers in the Squadron, by his fine work, his inimitable enthusiasm and his thorough determination to see any task completed with all possible accuracy. During the first raid on the Scharnhorst in a Kiel dry dock, Sergeant Simmons held his bombing until the ship literally "filled his bomb sight" and then let ship and dock have it for all he was worth. Five direct hits were easily distinguishable from photographs taken some few hours after this raid. The latest effort of Sergeant Simmons is merely typical of the man and the work he invariably does. Early career Nicholas Palmer Simmons was born at Bratton Clovelly, Devon in October 1916 and was educated at Callington County School, Cornwall, where he was captain of the cricket and soccer XIs. In 1935 he enlisted in the Life Guards, with whom he qualified as a gunner and signaller, in addition to representing the regiment at cricket and rugby, but in 1937, he purchased his discharge in favour of joining the mounted branch of Exeter City Police (a decision possibly hastened by the hair-raising occasion on which his horse bolted down Pall Mall). Back in the West Country, he gained further accolades in rugby for both the police and Exeter City, and but for the advent of hostilities, he may well have been selected to represent his country. It was also during this period that he became interested in aviation through the Civil Air Guard, and in early 1939, after again growing disillusioned with his chosen career, he elected to join the Royal Air Force as a direct entry Air Observer (a decision also influenced by the fact he had recently paid the fine of a beggar he had arrested, in order to save him from jail). No. 58 Squadron: September 1939 to July 1940 In September 1939, having completed his training at Desford and Yatesbury, Simmons, now a Sergeant, was posted to No. 58 Squadron, a Whitley unit operating out of Linton-on-Ouse, and flew his first mission as a Navigator and Bomb Aimer to the Ruhr on the 3rd - this was also the first occasion on which R.A.F. aircraft penetrated into Germany. Later that month, on the 28th, he returned to the Ruhr, his flying log book noting that his pilot had to make a forced landing at Barton Stacey on their return - Mentioned in Bomber Command Orders. Thereafter, commencing on 10 October (his birthday), and ending on 16 January 1940, he completed 13 Anti-Submarine Patrol and Convoy Escort sorties out of Boscombe Down, following which he attended the School of Navigation at St. Athan on an Advanced Observers Course in Astro-Navigation. Duly qualified, he returned to No. 58 Squadron (now back at Linton-on-Ouse), and flew a search mission over the North Sea on 12 April 1940 before being assigned to more regular bombing strikes, and by late July he had completed in excess o
