409. An exceptionally interesting medal and document group, offered for the very first time, belonging to the only British Officer who served with the US Forces in the Vietnam War. Most importantly, this group relates to Thomas Abraham, who wrote a book called 'The Cage', in which he stated he was a prisoner of the Vietcong - a story which was later proven to be untrue. The group consists of Abraham's 11 service medals, 4 being named, his miniatures awards, ribbon bar, unit patches & insignia in a wooden display case, as pictured. The awards are all complete with their respective award certificates, held in a folder, along with his Reserve Commission and other items of paperwork, including his course certificates and honourable discharge. The folio also contains large colour photographs, as well as his Silver & Bronze Stars combat report/criteria awards paperwork and confirmation of Purple Heart, Air Medal & Vietnam Cross of Gallantry. There is also a 2 part folio of black & white and colour photographs on campaign (approx. 50) as well as a copy of his book 'The Cage' - Transworld Publishers, 2002. Included also are the supposed secret letters, written in ink & lemon juice, detailing his captivity and torture ordeal. And last, but not least, a steel wire which he famously claimed was used to bind his wrists while in captivity. Tom Abraham on the face of it would seem to be a very heroic soldier, who was captured in 1968 during the crazy days of the Tet Offensive, however, the murky truth has since emerged that he was not actually ever captured and made up the whole story as a result of an incident where he was arrested by the Surrey police for drink driving and assault, in which he hit both police officer's in 1999. On the day of his trial, he gave the story in court that as a result of post traumatic events relating to his capture, imprisonment and torture by the Vietcong, he was therefore not responsible for his actions. At the court house was a reporter to took down the details of the story and its intriguing nature and passed these details onto The Daily Mail, who subsequently contacted Abraham and offered him an undisclosed sum to publish his story, which led to him also writing his book. According to Abraham, he was captured in 1968 during the Tet offensive, while serving as a junior officer with the 7th Air Cavalry Brigade. He claims he was taken by the Vietcong to a remote area, caged in bamboo, submerged underwater for short periods, tortured with cigarette burns and physical abuse. He managed to escape from his captors and made his way back to safety...however, he failed to notify anyone at the time, including his wife, of his capture or escape. As a result, his book and story has been widely criticised and he was taken to court as a result by The Daily Mail. The group was bought as a result of him having to raise funds for his legal defence team and is for the first time ever available to purchase on the open market. There are many stories relating to Abraham which can be found on the internet, and also some unbelievable ones contained in his book. As mentioned, this is one of the strangest and interesting groups to have surfaced and any prospective buyer would have this as a unique group within their collection. $7000 to $8000 410.

M.P. MORETON. R. IR. F. United Nations medal for Korea, un named as issued. Medals display court mounted, with a photographic image of the recipient.

Lieutenant Michael Philip Moreton, a native of Mill Hill, London; commissioned Second Lieutenant, 1st Battalion Royal Irish Fusiliers, 27.2.1954; Lieutenant 23.1.1959; 'At 18 years of age I was obliged to do two years' National Service. My ambition to become a Fleet Air Arm pilot was thwarted by colour blindness, but I joined the Middlesex Regiment and was selected for officer training at Canterbury and at Eaton Hall, Cheshire. It was very hard work, but a superb experience and I have never been so fit. When that was over, I wanted to rejoin the Middlesex in Austria (plenty of skiing opportunities), but instead was assigned to the Royal Irish Fusiliers in Korea. That was a bit of a shock, but at least by then the fighting in Korea was over.... In 1954, the country was in a terrible state, twice overrun by the North Koreans and Chinese armies and then rescued by United Nations forces. The first thing we noticed in Pusan was the overpowering smell; the whole city had become a giant shanty town, home to refugees from all over Korea.

We travelled by train and truck via Glouster Valley, scene of much bravery during the fighting, to our battalion's camp near the Imjin River, bordering North Korea. My platoon, like all the others, occupied a small hill, of which there were thousands, with well dug-in defences. The opposing forces did much the same so it was a stalemate situation. The next seven months we trained, patrolled the De-Militarised Zone (DMZ), observed the opposition on the other side of the border... Winter was bitterly cold, a north wind blowing from Siberia keeping temperatures down to minus 40 degrees C.

From Korea we were sent to Kenya to fight what were described as Mau Mau terrorists.... Out of the train, it was onto army trucks along the only tarmac road in the country, 80 miles north to our camp near Lake Naivasha.... Soon we were patrolling deep into the bamboo forest looking for the Mau Mau, relying on native African trackers to guide us.... I was posted to the King's African Rifles' headquarters at Nakuru, as Motor Transport Officer, responsible for 20 staff and 30 vehicles.... In fact, the country's bumpy, twisty roads were a great opportunity to develop racing skills, and I would happily four wheel drift a one-tonner or Land Rover.'

After his national service had ended Moreton trained as a Car Chassis Engineer, and worked for 23 years at Ford in Product Development and Project Management, at AVO and Motorsport, in the centre of the action creating and managing the majority of the Rallye Sport Fords. After Ford he moved first to TWR, managing the Jaguar XJ220 project, then to Aston Martin Lagonda as acting Operations Director, producing Volante and Vantage supercars, and finally to KBD Design in Essex. Whilst Moreton's technical knowledge increased so too did his racing prowess. Having joined the British Automobile Racing Club he set about racing his MG TA at Silverstone and Goodwood; in later life he wrote Rallye Sport Fords, The Inside Story. $900 to $1000 427. S.O.E.

Later in his life he would learn another six languages, including Cantonese). It was not to be and instead he was sent to Hong Kong in the role of secret censor and interpreter, which was to play an important part in his subsequent career. By 1943, as a Captain, he volunteered to join the Special Operations Executive (S.O.E.). In March 1945 he was dropped behind enemy lines in Malaya, only his second parachute jump. Months of guerrilla action followed, disrupting Japanese communications and encouraging local people against the Japanese invaders. When the Japanese capitulated after the dropping of the bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Lieut-Col Alexander took their surrender at Ipoh. He was awarded the MBE (Military) for ''gallant and distinguished services.''

In 1946 he commenced a career in what was then the administrative branch of the Colonial Service. A brief posting to Nigeria, where his ability was not recognised, was followed by a secondment to the War Office's British Military Administration in Cyrenaica (Libya) eventually being Chief Secretary to the independent United Kingdom of Libya's Ministry of the Interior. In 1953 he was transferred to Hong Kong where he was put in charge of the Essential Services Corps and the Civil Aid Services, which was responsible for protecting families in the event of a major emergency or disaster. He stayed in Hong Kong until his retiral in 1975. His final appointment was as Director of Urban Services which carried with it membership of the Governor's Legislative Council. Until 1973 he was chairman of the Housing Authority. His approachable and friendly management style made him one of the most popular of Hong Kong's senior administrators. His duties of providing administrative support to the Urban Council meant that at times he came into conflict with local tycoons and other power brokers. This might have cost him further advancement. He was created CBE in 1973. On returning to Scotland in 1975 he was appointed a part time Commissioner of Income Tax and then was asked to stand as a Conservative candidate for a seat in Lothian regional Council. Despite a dislike of partisan political dispute, he was successful and between 1982 and 1986 was chairman of the Planning and Development Committee. Fellow Conservatives describe him as an unassuming man who was extremely helpful, and hard working - not above cleaning the floor of the local constituency offices if necessary. 'He was totally honest and had great integrity. You knew exactly where you stood with him. He was more than gentlemanly - one of the nicest people I have ever met,' says a friend. He married in 1947 and had two children, Richard and Elaine. His first wife died in 1973 and he married Peggy James in 1982. He died in 1997. $2500 to $3000

William Leslie Chivers, the son of Albert and Mary Jane Chivers, was a native of New Malden, Surrey, England, where he was born on 8 September 1907. At the time of William's baptism on 4 October 1907, his father was described as being employed as a 'Cab Driver' - which must have heavily influenced William's choice of career, as he too became a driver being appointed a Head Chauffeur to the Royal Household of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. In 1904 William resided with his family at 2 Belmont Villas, Seaforth Terrace, West Barnes. By 1911 William was then living with his large family - at the family residence located at 67 Dorain Road, Rayner Park, Wimbledon. William married Violet M. Smith, at London, England, in the last quarter of 1929. William is finally recorded as having died at Basingstoke, Hampshire, England, sometime in the second quarter of 1978. Interestingly, William's son, Derek Chivers, also followed his father into the British Army and subsequent service with the Royal Household. In an article published in the Henley Standard on 12 March 2012, he made several mentions of his fathers 'Royal Service' as the Head Chauffeur to Queen Elizabeth: ‘A man from Sonning Common is hoping to be reunited with the woman he played cricket with as a boy — the Queen. Derek Chivers, 77, is the son of the royal family’s former head chauffeur, William Leslie Chivers, and once lived in the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace. In the summer, he would go to Balmoral, the family’s Scottish retreat, where he would enjoy playing sports with a young Princess Elizabeth. Mr Chivers has many memories of that time and would like the chance to meet the Queen when she visits Henley on June 25 and thank her for all she did for his family. "I was lucky enough to go everywhere with my father," he said. "I used to go up to Balmoral in the school holidays as well as to Sandringham and Windsor Castle”. "I had an absolutely marvellous time with our Queen."Mr Chivers snr began driving the royal family in late 1945 when he was demobbed from the army. His son said: "He started with Princess Margaret and then with Princess Elizabeth for a couple of years”. "Then he drove King George VI and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, when he became head chauffeur”. "I played cricket with both the princesses and it was a happy time. We were all friends together."He said the two princesses loved games and Elizabeth liked to both bat and bowl when they played cricket”. "The princesses were both very good and of course they loved horses too”. "The royals are marvellous horse people and I think that’s where the Princess Royal got her for horses. "Mr Chivers left the Royal Mews when he joined the Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers. He served for three years and saw active service in Egypt and Jordan. After being demobbed, he went into service like his father. He married Ann in 1954 and the couple have two daughters and three grandchildren. They have lived in Sonning Common for almost 13 years. Mr Chivers said: "I would love to go and see the Queen and say to her, ‘I don’t know if you would remember me, Your Majesty, but my father was your head chauffeur’ — she will remember him. I am very proud of the medals I earned and very proud to serve our wonderful Queen. We are very lucky as a country to have such a wonderful person." $2400 to $2800 435.

Morris was aboard H.M.S.

On 28 April 1915 she suffered significant damage from Ottoman shore batteries during an attack on Krithia, forcing her to retire to Mudros for repairs. Back in action on 2 May 1915, she again suffered damage necessitating repairs at Mudros. On the night of 22–23 May 1915, Albion beached on a sandbank off Gaba Tepe and came under heavy fire from Ottoman shore batteries. About 200 shells hit her, but they could not penetrate her armour and did no serious damage, and Albion suffered fewer than a dozen casualties. After efforts were made to free her by reducing her weight and by using the recoil of firing her main guns simultaneously, her sister ship Canopus towed her to safety on 24 May 1915, Albion still firing at the Ottoman forts while being towed clear. Albion left the area for repairs on 26 May 1915 and underwent a refit at Malta in May–June 1915.

On 4 October 1915, Albion arrived at Salonika to become a unit of the 3rd Detached Squadron, tasked with assisting the French Navy in a blockade off the coasts of Greece and Bulgaria and with reinforcing the Suez Canal Patrol.

Comes with a rising sun cap badge. Born Myrtleford, Victoria in 1882. He served with the militia for six years, with three years as a 2nd Lieutenant and in charge of the Light Horse in Myrtleford, prior to enlisting in the 8th Light Horse Regiment (‘C’ Squadron) in September 1914. 2nd Lt Carthew embarked from Melbourne on board HMAT Star of Victoria (A16) on 25 February 1915. He was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant at Gallipoli on 3 June 1915. Lt Carthew was killed in action on the 1st day of the famous 7 August attack on the Nek, Gallipoli. He was 33 years of age and as he has no known grave, he is commemorated on the Lone Pine Memorial, Gallipoli. He final moments are cited in Voices From The Trenches’ by Noel Carthew: ‘The Turks, who had prudently retired to their saps during the bombardment, now emerged to man their maxims again, in anticipation of their next assault…On the stroke of the half-hour, as a whistle blew, the first wave of the 8th Light Horse swarmed over the parapet. As Charles watched, appalled, he saw Colonel White immediately stagger and fall…He was never to know that within two short minutes the entire complement of officer’s had been killed and that many of them lay mortally wounded in an area of less than half an acre. There was no time to dwell on their probable demise as Major Deeble raised his whistle to his quivering lips to signal the second charge. Poised on the fire step, Charles leapt onto the parapet, his figure outlined for an instant against the lightening sky…Charles had gone less than ten paces when he was hit by a stunning blow. His legs buckled underneath him and, as he fell, he was dimply aware that a herd of wild horses was trampling him’. (Pages 60-61) The Nek was a vitally important position on the northern end of the ANZAC front line and the scene of a tragic attack by the 3rd Light Horse Brigade at dawn on 7 August 1915. It was a narrow bridge of land that stretched between Russell's Top and Baby 700 across the top of Monash Valley. The Turkish trenches on the slopes of Baby 700 allowed them to dominate the Australian positions below….The first wave of light horsemen from the 8th Light Horse Regiment were shot down by Turkish rifle and machine-gun fire. The second line, also from the 8th, scrambled over the dead and wounded of the first line to make their attack, and suffered the same fate. The 8th Light Horse suffered 234 casualties, 154 fatal. (Australian War Memorial - online) Lieutenant Carthew is mentioned in several sources, including ‘Fatal Charge at Gallipoli’ by John Hamilton, ‘The Nek: A Gallipoli Tragedy’ by Peter Burness and ‘Voices From The Trenches’ by Noel Carthew (Written based on Charles and his two brothers letters and experiences during the war and included as part of this lot). $3000 to $3500 499.

During the Gallipoli campaign Lee was with B Sqn of the 10th Light Horse, being the senior sergeant in the squadron. During the fatal attack at the Nek on the 7th August 1915, B Squadron was in the last two waves of the 10th Light Horse’s fateful charge. Lee was probably In the last wave and thus escaped an injury or possible death as they were held back at the very last moment. He succussed the famous SSM Spinghall of B Squadron who was killed on the 7th August in the 3rd wave. Sgt Lee suffered two wounds later during the campaign on the 29th August 1915 at Hil 60, sustaining a gun shot wound to the back and a bayonet wound to the buttock.

His Military Medal citation reads:

“Pte Anderson was a member of an ambush party of ten men sited to cut off a party of enemy which was being followed up after an earlier contact.

At about 1730 hours the enemy appeared un-expectedly at the rear of the ambush. Pte Anderson was one of the two soldiers able to bring fire to bear. His fire killed one of the leading enemy. The remaining enemy took cover 15 paces from Pte Anderson. The OC commanding the ambush and the NCO present were pinned down by enemy fire and were unable to move to a position to control an assault. Pte Anderson was in the best position to control an assault onto the enemy. He interpreted and passed on his Platoon’s Commanders orders. When the 6 soldiers able to move arrived in a position to assault from the right flank, he calmly and confidently assumed control. He organised them into extended line and covered their movement by fire and by throwing .

He realised that the machine gun was not in the best position so he crawled forward under fire, took over the MG and moved it to a better position. His actions and example contributed greatly to the success of the operation in which 4 of the enemy were killed.

Circumstances placed him a position of unexpected responsibility and danger from a very determined and brave enemy. He was under enemy fire at close range for over 30 mins. During this period, his leadership, actions and bravery were in the highest traditions of the service, and were an inspiration to all.”

Pte Anderson was tragically killed in a car accident not long after his return to Australia. Comes with a complete file of his military service.
