Flying Officer Thomas Edward Holmes joined the RAF in August 1941, being commissioned on 18th July 1944. At the time of the award of the George Medal, he was serving with 455 Squadron. The award of the George Medal appeared in the London Gazette on the 5th January 1945 with the citation as follows, “One night in May 1944, Flight Sergeant Holmes was Observer in Beaufighter aircraft detailed for bombing practice. Soon after take off one engine failed and, when a forced landing was attempted at a nearby airfield, the aircraft crashed into a wood and burst into flames. Flight Sergeant Holmes was burnt about the face and his harness was on fire before he was able to fight his way out of his compartment. Trees had fallen over the aircraft and were blazing furiously. The airmen climbed first along the port side and then along the starboard side of the aircraft in an attempt to rescue his pilot, but was prevented from doing so by the burning trees and the fire in the aircraft. Flight Sergeant Holmes then forced his way through the woods to the front of the Beaufighter but again was unable to get his companion because of the dense and blazing undergrowth. This airmen displayed great courage and persistence in his gallant attempt to rescue the pilot in the face of exploding cannon shells, practice bombs and petrol tanks which had been torn from the aircraft and were blazing nearby. In August 1944, Flight Sergeant Holmes was again involved in a crash of another aircraft in which he was flying observer. Despite severe cuts to his head and face he quickly left his compartment, climbed up the wing of the blazing aircraft, and helped his pilot from the cockpit, thereby enabling his to escape with only minor burns.”
