Sgt W.R. Gent, RAF). GVF, mounted court style (the Victory medal now with a dull tone) Note: AFM London Gazette 23.8.1919 ‘His Majesty the King has been graciously pleased to confer the undermentioned rewards in recognition of distinguished services rendered to Aviation, in the successful voyages of Airship R34 from the United Kingdom to the United States of America and back. Outward Journey: Left East Fortune 1.42am 2 July 1919 and arrived at Hazlehurst Field, Long Island at 1.54 pm (GMT) 6 July 1919 (Duration 108 hours 12 minutes). Homeward journey: Left Long Island 3.54am (GMT) 10 July 1919 and arrived at Pulham, Norfolk at 6.57am 13 July 1919 (Duration 75 hours 3 minutes)’. R34 had an eventful trip to the US. Damage to propellers on landing from a trial flight had caused her to be ‘laid up’ and during this period Alcock and Brown took the historic ‘First to Cross the Atlantic’ by air honour. On her journey to America R34 run into two electrical storms on the final part of her outward trip and was buffeted by strong winds. On the morning of 5 July her commander, Major G H Scott (who was also to lose his life on R101) sent a radio message stating that her fuel was running low. Following this another message was sent from the airship asking if US Naval ships could stand by if required. Thankfully the situation improved and R34 made a successful landing with but 90 minutes of fuel left. On her return trip R34 was diverted by the Air Ministry to Pulham, Norfolk due to bad weather. British Empire Medal London Gazette 19 May 1925. ‘The King has been graciously pleased to approve the award of the Medal of the Civil Division of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire to the under mentioned in recognition of conspicuous devotion to duty in circumstances of exceptional difficulty and danger on board H.M. Airship R33 on the occasion of the breaking away of the Airship from the mooring mast at Pulham on the 16 April 1925...’ On this occasion strong and gusty winds on the night of 16/17 April 1925 caused the R33 to break away from her mooring mast puncturing one of her gasbags. She was driven across the North Sea and urgent wireless messages were sent to various authorities. Naval ship HMS Godetia was sent from Lowestoft to track the airship and effect a rescue in the event of her ditching into the North Sea and the local lifeboat was also called out but had to return to station after being nearly swamped in the worsening weather. After several hours the R33 was got back under control by her crew of 20 who formed the ‘Anchor Watch’. Gent held the position of Chief Engineer during the ill-fated trip on R101. He had been a long-time friend of Harry Leech and during the flight they both went to the aft engine car to check an oil gauge which was not giving pressure readings. Whilst in the car they looked out over the channel and were surprised at how low they were flying. At about 1.00 am after correcting the fault they were joined in the smoking room by Irwin who thanked them for their efforts. Irwin then left and Leech suggested Gent should retire for the night. At 53 William Gent had been the oldest crew member aboard, his body was identified on its return to London, illustrated on Plate 19.

1976 Ford Transit 130 LWB Van-Ex Metropolitan Police Reg. No.: OYN 950R Chassis no. BD05RC62836 Engine No.: BD05RC62836 The original range of Ford transit vans were introduced in 1965 and dominated the mid range market from the start. The legacy is such that the transit is still made today. They had a variety of uses and these included the police force. This control van was one of six used by the metropolitan police. It was confirmed by a current serving officer that it was used to rescue police officers at Broadwater farm riots in 1985. Photographic and film evidence has been found to show that vans from the fleet were used at Operation Nimrod (Iranian Embassy) in 1980 and at the Clapham rail disaster in 1988. They were also used at many other demonstrations/crowd control events in London. These vans would be positioned where the officer in charge had full view of the location and would use the all round visability provided by the van to evaluate the situation and send radio messages to other police groups. The van is fitted with loudspeakers for direct instructions/crowd control. In certain situations it would be used as the main communication van/mobile police station. It is essentially the fore-runner of the CCTV vans you see around today. This van is believed to be one of only two survivors and was purchased by the present owners in 2008 after the Metropolitan Police museum was disbanded. It has not run for a number of years following a period in the museum. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
