WW2 British RAF Caterpillar Club medal group comprising of 1939/45 Star, Aircrew Europe Star, Defence Medal and War Medal. Mounted as worn, later issues as shown by the large rings. Condition GVF. Caterpillar Club Badge correctly engraved to the reverse F/SGT M.A. Mead. “Each time we boarded an aircraft for an operation over enemy territory, we were frightened. Some were shaking with fear, some were laughing and making pathetic jokes but we were all pretending that we hadn't a care in the world, we were brave young warriors doing a patriotic duty. Our insides were jelly”. Marck Armitage Mead was a survivor of the Long March who’s captivity is brought to life in a rare and fascinating archive of original letters written from his captivity in German Captivity. Mead’s experiences were used in the film “The Long March to Freedom” which can be viewed on Amazon and DVD. This archive consists of Flight Sergeant Meads, Medals, Original Caterpillar Club Badge and card. A super archive of letters written from captivity, commencing in October 1942 and commencing in April 1945. A good selection of original wartime ephemera, including his Service and Release Book, National ID Card, Leave form, Clothing Book, Wartime Maps and his original Flying Training Manual (1940). Mead’s flying commenced with 12 Squadron, Bomber Command. Based at Binbrook, Lincolnshire, he was flying Wellington Bombers and took part in raids to Hamburg and the Ruhr. On May 31st Mead was to take part in what at that point was the largest operation in the history of flying. Flying Whitley P Peter 1341 Flight attached to 12 Squadron. 1000 bombers from all over England were to drop 1,400 tons of bombs on the City of Cologne. Mead describes the flak and shell explosions rocking the aircraft, tracer bullets creating colourful arcs all around them. This as well as his later experiences and ultimately his time as a POW is contained in the book “The branch book of service stories”. Published by the British Legion. Transferring to 103 Squadron, Mead was to soon experience flying in one of the largest Bombers of the war, the Halifax. A crew of seven, and a weight of twenty four tons, twenty feet high with a wingspan of 33 yards. On October 5th 1942 Mead was flying with Warrant Officer Edwards, an experienced pilot and very well respected, Mead's was to take his position in the second “dickey” seat beside Edwards. As the machine Q for Queenie approached the Belgian coast, they were met with deadly flak, this was to be constant for the next hour until, overt the intercom, the crew were to hear the dreaded words from the Rear Gunner, Fighter!, Fighter!, Below Port. But even before he had finished speaking the awful rattle of shells exploding within the aircraft, then a second burst, and a third. Within seconds flames were licking across the nacelles of the two port engines, and the pilot was struggling to control the plane which had gone into an unchecked dive. He spoke the emergency command quickly and clearly, Parachute, Parachute, Jump, Jump. These were to be Warrant Officer Edwards last words he had held the aircraft level enough to give the crew enough time to save themselves. After trying for several days to evade capture, Mead was to spend the next two and a half years as a POW in Stalag V111B in Silesia. Before being forced march out of the camp and along with others from camps were forced to march towards the Reich, many dying in the process of starvation and hypothermia. Medals later issues as shown by the large rings. Condition GVF

British Parachute Regiment Falklands Medal group comprising GSM 1962-2007 Northern Ireland - correctly impressed 24429828 Pte S M Cowan Para South Atlantic Medal 1982 - correctly impressed 24429828 L Cpl S M Cowan Para Court Mounted as worn. Condition EF Sold by direct order of the recipient. The following information is his account of his service. I was a member of a 4 man Patrol with D Ptl Coy ( 42 B ), Basically we were the eyes and ears for the battalion and Command, each patrol would consist of a Ptl Cmdr, a Lead Scout, a Gunner and a Radio Operator, the task of a Medic within the patrol was a joint effort between the four members, I myself was the Lead Scout for 42B, whilst on patrol I would be pushed a little further than the other three. The CO of 3 Para would get his orders from on high and he would then disseminate and give out missions to do , for instance a CTR ( Close Tgt Recce ) where the Ptl would get as close as possible and even inside the enemy area and monitor / gather as much Intel as possible to feed back to battalion command. Whilst in an OP ( Observation Post ), we could be some distance away and bring in a fire mission from our artillery, which we did using a Marine Artillery Unit 29 Commando, onto Mt Longdon, which was 3 Para's objective. Patrols were also used to find safe routes to what is called a Start Line, where you would bring in the Riffle Company/ies so they could get themselves sorted and wait for H Hour. When it was all over and time for tea and medals, I was very happy to learn that I had been promoted in the field to Lance Corporal, a bit of a rarity since WWII. There's other tasks that as a Company we would be required to do such as lay down markers ( DZ- Drop Zone ) for incoming troops and or Eqp't. A few of us actually did lay down markers in the form of a Special DZ on the Racecourse area for a drop of Eqpt via a Hercules C130, only to be told while we were waiting for the aircraft , that we were in a minefield ( comical I know ) so we than had to wait until someone managed to find the Argentine Engineer officer who hopefully still had the layout document so we could all walk out unscathed. I remained in D Ptl Coy until 85 when It was decided that the 5th Airborne Brigade be equipped with a Pathfinder Platoon, a number of men were pulled/volunteered from the Regiments 3 Battalions and other arms that were parachute trained, ie Royal Engineers, the Guards. We numbered around 32 all ranks. In 1987, I was posted back to 3 Para for the upcoming tour of NI in 89 and took up a position within B Coy; towards the end of that 2-year tour, I was posted back to the Depot in Aldershot. After leaving the army I worked within the security circuit providing close protection and performing other security related tasks, this took me up to 2003 when I relocated to Iraq providing security for a British Company who had won contracts from the US DoD. My time in Iraq ended in 2010 when the US pulled out across the Kuwaiti Border. I then relocated to Afghanistan, again providing security on US FOB's. Condition EF
