George VI Regular Army Long Service Good Conduct Medal Awarded to Serjeant Sidney Charles Royal Engineers Who Was Taken Prisoner of War at the Fall of Hong Kong and Killed When Being Transported to Japan on the SS Lisbon Maru which was Sunk by US Submarine USS Grouper in 1942, George VI Army Long Service Good Conduct medal with Regular Army bar, named in the correct style to “1862399 SJT S CHARLES R.E.” The medal is housed in its original forwarding box. Accompanying the medal is photocopied research and a copy of the book “The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru – Britain’s Forgotten Wartime Tragedy” by Tony Banham. Sidney Charles was born on 13th April 1900 in Gillingham, Kent. His civilian trade is listed as Shipwright. He enlisted in the Royal Engineers in at Chatham on 9th June 1922. He served with various units of the Royal Engineers before being posted to 40th Fortress Company Royal Engineers in Hong Kong. He was reported missing and prisoner of war of the Japanese on Christmas day 1941. Charles along with 1,815 other British and Canadian prisoners, taken at the fall of Hong Kong were loaded onto the transport ship SS Lisbon Maru, and was on its way to Japan when it was attacked and sunk by the US Submarine USS Grouper with the loss of over 800 passengers, it was stated that some prisoners were shot by Japanese soldiers as they tried to escape the sinking ship. The Japanese did not mark the ship detailing that Prisoners of War were being transported so allied submarines had no clue as to the cargo on board. The book accompanying this medal details the event, it tells the story of many of the prisoners struggles with the Japanese soldiers who had no intention in trying to help them at first, it states that Sidney Charles was one of those men who managed to escape the ship but was eventually overcome by the water, “As Royal Engineer Sergeant Sidney Charles, born in Gillingham Kent on 13th April 1900, drifted away from his companions, he must have eventually realised that he would never see his wife, Alice, whom he had married in 1931, and son, David again.”

WW2 Merchant Navy Medal Group, Second Officer Cameron on the SS Tottenham, Sunk by the German Raider Atlantis on 17th June 1941, Cameron along with 16 other crew members avoided capture and were eventually picked up by SS Mahronda on 28th June 1941, consisting of 1939-45 star, Atlantic star, Africa star with North Africa 1942-43 bar, Pacific star with Burma bar, Italy star and 1939-45 War medal with bronze MID oakleaf. The medals are un-named as issued but are accompanied by the original Board of Trade certificate of discharge for Daniel Cameron, listing all the ships he served on from 1937 until 1956. Daniel Vass McIver Cameron was 2nd officer on the S.S Tottenham when she was attacked and sunk by the German Raider Atlantis on 17th June 1941. An extract of the action is as follows, “This 4.760-ton British freighter, bound from the UK to Alexandria via the Cape , carrying aircraft, aircraft parts, ammunition, tractors and cars, was followed for a day and attacked at nightfall with a warning shot across her bows. The RRR signal was heard and one shot was fired from the freighter’s 4-inch gun, which, although it fell short, prompted Rogge to open up with thirty-nine 5,9-inch and eleven 7.5mm shells, scoring two hits. Her Captain ordered his crew to abandon ship while she was still under way, causing two of the lifeboats to be swamped as they hit the water fully laden. Once again the raider’s torpedoes proved unreliable, two missing completely and the third causing insufficient damage to sink the freighter, so that she had to be sunk by gunfire. With his position now known to the British ashore, Rogge, anxious to get away, and having picked up 29 men, including the Captain and Chief Engineer, from one boat, but having failed to find the 17 men in the other, called off the search. Eight weeks later, the boat drifted ashore on the coast of Brazil, near Rio, abandoned, awash and empty. Trafalgar’s Second Officer Cameron and 16 others had deliberately avoided rescue and having found five more men on life rafts, and then drifted for eleven days, were luckily picked up by the SS Mahronda on June 28.” Cameron was later awarded a commendation (M.I.D) for this action, in the London Gazette 6th January 1942.
