A fine and interesting Great War D.C.M., M.M. pair awarded to Sergeant J. Curran, 19th Battalion, Manchester Regiment, who after a distinguished wartime career, deserted and was convicted by the civil authorities of aggravated assault and house breaking, these crimes resulting in a period of imprisonment and the forfeiture of his Great War campaign medals Distinguished Conduct Medal, G.V.R. (38544 Sjt: J. Curran. M.M. 19/Manch: R.); Military Medal, G.V.R. (38544 L. Cpl. J. Curran. 19/Manch: R.); together with British War and Victory Medals, both with naming erased, mounted court-style for display, several heavy edge bruises, otherwise nearly very fine (4) £1,400-£1,800 --- D.C.M. London Gazette 3 October 1918: ‘For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He went forward with two men and surprised and captured an enemy post of one officer and six men in broad daylight. Later, he assumed command of his platoon, and under a very heavy barrage held an isolated position until relieved. His conduct throughout was splendid, and inspired his men.’ Annotated Gazette states: ‘Nr Ridge, 8 May 1918.’ M.M. London Gazette 28 September 1917. Fortunately Sergeant Curran’s correspondence file survives at the National Archives, from which the following information is sourced: 24 June 1920: Awarded 14 days’ detention for absence from 22:00, 12 June 1920 to 00:50, 13 June 1920, resisting an escort, and stating a falsehood to his C.O. 7 July 1920: Declared a deserter by Court of Inquiry held at Kinnel Park. 4 August 1920: Arrested by G.P. at Manchester and rejoined at Kinnel Park on 5 August 1920. 7 August 1920: The military authorities now discover that Curran had been awarded three months hard labour on 19 June 1920 at Chester Castle Sessions for aggravated assault on a female. He is arrested at Kinnel Park and committed to Liverpool Prison to serve sentence. 4 October 1920: Discharged from the Army having been convicted by a Civil Power, his character at the time being given as ‘bad’. A statement made by Curran in relation to his health states: ‘I am always coughing and spitting phlegm and short of breath. I consider this is the result of hardships in the trenches and being gassed on several dates, 31 July 1916 at Ypres, 1 May 1918 at Ypres, and 15 May 1918 at Ypres. 25 May 1927: John Curran (a.k.a. John Ryan) held at Albany Police Station awaiting trial. The following letter to the O.C., 17th Manchester Regiment from a Police Sergeant sheds some light on this: ‘I beg to report that the above named ex-soldier, John Ryan [name at top of sheet given as John Curran] is awaiting sentence at County of London Sessions commencing 14 June 1927 on a charge of house-breaking. When arrested on 2 May 1927, prisoner refused to give any particulars of himself. He now states that he served in the 17th Manchesters under Colonel MacDonald from 5 March 1916 till the end of the war when he was discharged as a Sergeant. He also states that he was awarded the D.C.M. and M.M., and that his Army character was very good...’ A letter written by Curran from Brixton Prison two weeks later requesting details of his service states: ‘Dear Sir, I am in some trouble and should thank you ever so mutch [sic] if you can kindly let me have the deeds that I got my D.C.M. and M.M. for.’ In relation to the forfeiture of his medals, it is clear that he was originally destined to lose his gallantry awards as well as his campaign medals. However, on 22 April 1922 a letter from the War Office cleared the whole issue up: ‘I am commanded to inform you that the Distinguished Conduct Medal awarded to No. 90232, Private J. Curran, Manchester Regiment, for service as No. 38544 Sergeant J. Curran, M.M., 19th Battalion, Manchester Regiment, vide the London Gazette dated 3 October 1918, and forfeited by him in consequence of his discharge on the 4th October 1920 (on conviction by the Civil Power) under Article 1236 of the Royal Warrant for pay, etc., of the Army which was in force on that date has been restored by the Army Council under Article 1240 of the above mentioned Royal Warrant. The Army Council have also decided under the power delegated to them by the terms of the 9th Ordinance of the Royal Warrant dated 24 March 1919, governing the award of the Military Medal, that this decoration awarded to the above named man for service as No. 38544 Private, Manchester Regiment, vide the London Gazette dated the 28th September 1917, shall not be forfeited... I am further to state that as the above mentioned decorations have not been returned to this Department it is presumed that they have been previously issued to Private Curran and are now in his possession. I am to add however that the commemorative war medals earned by this man are forfeited under Article 1236(b) of the Royal Warrant.’ World War I medal roll confirms ‘B.W.M. and V.M. returned, forfeited, 4.10.20.’ Sold with copies of his National Archives correspondence file and other research.

Pair: Able Seaman M. A. Chick, Royal Navy and Mercantile Marine, who served aboard H.M.S. Newfoundland when she sank the Egyptian frigate Domiat by gunfire in 1956 - the last occasion that a warship was destroyed by conventional gun action Naval General Service 1915-62, 1 clasp, Near East (P/SSX.871490 M. A. Chick. A.B. R.N.); South Atlantic 1982, with rosette (M. A. Chick) officially named in the style associated with the Mercantile Marine, mounted as worn, nearly extremely fine (2) £500-£700 --- Michael Arthur Chick was born in Salisbury on 4 September 1933, the son of chief clerk and special constable Hector A. Chick. Educated locally, he joined the Royal Navy and was aboard the light cruiser Newfoundland in the autumn of 1956; liaising with the British destroyer Diana, the sloops Crane and Modeste, the Royal Fleet Auxiliary Wave Sovereign and the French frigates La Perouse, Gazelle and Jasmin, Newfoundland headed an Anglo-French flotilla detailed to the protection of shipping in the Gulf of Suez as part of Operation Toreador. On the night of 31 October 1956, Newfoundland encountered a ‘darkened ship’ cruising to the south of the Canal. Ordered to heave-to, the Egyptian Navy Frigate Domiat refused and opened fire on Newfoundland with her 4-inch armament. An early salvo shattered Newfoundland’s pay office which was situated directly below “B” turret, leaving a hole in the side of the British warship. Enraged, Newfoundland, supported by Diana, retaliated by illuminating her aggressor with a 20-inch Signal Projector and then proceeded to sink Domiat with nine broadsides from her main armament. The Wreck of the Domiat describes the carnage: ‘Our next broadside smashed into Domiat’s bows and ignited her paintshop so that her bows glowed cherry red in the dark night. Diana, astern, had seen Domiat turn and got in seventeen rounds of 4.5” from her A’s and B’s. As we closed the range, the 4” and bofors joined in and the Captain of one of the port bofors later received a DSM for his good work in hosing Domiat’s decks down with 40mm.’ Despite Egyptian hopes to ram Newfoundland, it soon became clear that Domiat was sinking and the fight was over; seeing shadows in the water, the British and French sailors transferred their attentions to rescuing 69 Egyptian survivors from the shark-infested waters. These men were later landed at Djibouti and enjoyed a spell in French custody. British casualties amounted to one man killed in action aboard Newfoundland and 6 wounded. Transferred to the Merchant Navy, Chick served aboard the former roll-on roll-off car transporter Europic Ferry during the Falklands War. Requisitioned by the Admiralty as a stores transport vessel, she was modified at Southampton and fitted with pintle-mounted Bren light machine guns; a rudimentary but invaluable defensive measure against low-level air attack. Loaded with ammunition, stores, fuel and vehicles, including much of the support equipment for the 2nd Battalion, Parachute Regiment, and 4 Westland Scout helicopters lashed to her deck, the Europic Ferry sailed on 25 April 1982 and liaised with Norland at Ascension Island on 8 May. Assembled to the east of the Falkland Islands in the build up to Operation Sutton, Europic Ferry joined the third wave of landings in San Carlos Water. Unloading her stores under clear skies, she proved a sitting duck to Argentine air attack and suffered a near miss. According to Amphibious Assault Falkland: The Battle of San Carlos Water, it was similar close-calls that convinced Commodore Michael Clapp to order all merchant ships out of the bay by midnight. Later camouflaged with mottled grey paint, Europic Ferry ended her campaign as a floating platform and workshop for Chinook helicopters. Chick later returned home to Salisbury where he died on 1 June 1994, a short while after selling his medals to the Castle Galleries. Probate recorded at Winchester later confirms his final address as 69 Belle Vue Road, Salisbury. Sold with a compliments slip from the Castle Galleries, Salisbury, dated 19 May 1994, hand annotated by recipient and confirming service.
