A MILITARY OBE GROUP TO CAPTAIN HEATON - ELLIS RA O.B.E; 1939/45 Star; France & Germany Star; Defence Medal and War Medal. Court mounted as worn with miniatures and box of issue for full-sized OBE.Condition GVFPresent with the group is his medal entitlement slip, Parachute insignia and table awards from his service with the BAOR and newspaper cuttings announcing his marriage. Peter Richard Heaton - Ellis was born on the 31st of August 1923. He was educated at Imperial Service College in Haileybury and commissioned into the Royal Artillery in 1943, seeing service in North-West Europe.He was awarded the O.B.E in June 1968 for his command of the Junior Leaders Regiment RA. His citation is as follows:‘Lieutenant Colonel Heaton Ellis has now completed 2 1/2 years as commanding officer of the Junior Leaders Regiment, Royal Artillery. These have been 2 1/2 constructive years, years of forward-thinking and achievement. He is a first-class regimental soldier whose qualities of leadership and superlative personal efforts have been an outstanding example to all ranks under his command. The success achieved in this most important informative training of the boys stems from his careful planning and expert eye for detail. His splendid character and fine example, the firm hand and touch of humour, has enabled the boys to develop their personalities and to build their characters for the day when they muster to join their individual regiments as future NCO's. The demise of the Territorial Army has left a void for assistance to cadet contingents and new T and AVR Units, but Heaton Ellis readily accepted extra outside commitments to assist the Warwickshire territorial regiment, 210 Staffordshire light air defence battery and two CC Contingents at Rugby and Solihull schools to the great benefit of the units concerned.Not a week passes without breaking new ground to advertise his regiment, to promote recruiting and to further interest for the army in schools countrywide; this involves conducting visits by both masters and pupils to the junior leader's regiment RA Bramcote; when Heaton Ellis always gives an introductory talk and concerns himself personally. He is often called upon to speak by local organisations; this he does readily to the great benefit of the army and the Royal Artillery. His example and direction have been of the very highest order, and his constant vigilance to maintain standards of administration and welfare during the very difficult years of barrack reconstruction has constituted a major contribution deserving recognition’.Lieutenant Colonel Heaton - Ellis passed away in 2011.
