  • The Advent of No. 1 Squadron
    CHAPTER I11 THE hllDDLE EAST-ADVENT OF NO. 1 SQUADRON IT became tlie custoni of the people, and even of the authorities, in Britain to refer to all operations in which British troops were engaged, in theatres of war other than France and Belgium, as “ side-shows.” In a sense they were such, and certainly they were for the greater part of the war treated as of secondary iniportance in the matter of equipment ~ and reinforcements. The Germans also regarded the Turkish theatre in much the same light. Both sides believed, and rightly, that the decision on the Western Front in France would settle tlie issues on all other fields. At least on the British side the lot of the troops who were engaged in “the side- shows ” was probably harder than that of those on the main f ront-harder, because supplies and equipment were generally inferior or insufficient, because soldiers’ home leave was almost unknown, and because, as the war lengthened out, commanders on niinor fronts were liable to be hampered and thwarted indefinitely by the demands of “ the general strategical situation.” The Palestine campaign-perhaps the most important of all tlie Allies’ minor-f ront campaigns-was carried to its brilliantly successful conclusion after bitter experience of niuddle, wasted energy, false moves, and inefficient support of earlier operations in the Near East. In 1915the British Army learned its hard lesson in the Gallipoli Peninsula and in hlesopotaniia. By early 1916 the only relief in the sonilre disillusion of the nation was the splendid heart of the men who fought and suffered and died and in part somehow survived in those badly organised ventures.

  • Air University Review: March-April 1977, Volume XXVIII, No. 3
    The Professional Journal of the United States A ir Force the editors aerie Dr. Robert L. Pfaltzgraff, Jr., in our lead article, "Emerging Major Power Relationships," reflects on the shifting great power triangle of the United States, the Soviet Union, and the Peop!e's Republic of China. The cover, by Art Editor/lllustrator Bill DePaola, depicts an American eagle warily observing this triangle in a graphic elaboration of an abstract theme. For the first time in the experience of this editor, the Awards Committee members were unanimous in their first place votes for Major Don Alberts's "A Call from the Wilderness'' in the November-December 1976 issue. Aspiring authors who want to gain insight into subject matter that receives a very receptive reading by our editorial panei may want to re-examine that article. To the 50 percent of Air Force officers who necessarily receive an efficiency rating of three or below, it may be of more than passing interest to learn that the pseudonymous author of "I Am a Three" was recently promoted. You won't find Major Mark Wynn's name on the lieutenant colonel's promotion list, but we have it on good authority that the author who appeared under that nom de plume in the September-October 1976 issue is a living example that "threes" are promotable. Congratulations would seem to be appropriate, but how does one congratulate the anonymous? In this issue we find ourselves in the slightly embarrassed position of publishing an article by a member of the Air University Review Awards Committee.

The experience of the infantry in combat and the subsequent development of the digger myth and the Anzac legend (which was informed and shaped by the digger myth) have taken centre stage. But does the digger reflect the experiences of other units within the First Australian Imperial Force (AIF)? This thesis examines the Australian Flying Corps to answer that question in part. This thesis is a social-military history of the AFC's combat aviators and mechanics, and sits within an Australian tradition of writing about war from below. It is a tradition that bases itself upon a lively discourse between the historian and the letters, memories and diaries of Australian soldiers.

  • The Imperial Dimension of Britain's War in the Air, 1914-1918
    THE DOMINION OF THE AIR The Dominion of the Air: the Imperial dimension of Britain’s war in the air, 1914-1918 MICHAEL MOLKENTIN University of New South Wales Canberra Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT It is now well established in the historical literature of the First World War that manpower and materiel, provided by the colonies and self-governing dominions, figured importantly in Britain’s war effort. One area, however, in which the war’s imperial dimension has yet to be properly analysed, is the air war – perhaps the very epitome of the ‘total war’ struggle that British society faced between 1914-18. This article evaluates the imperial contribution to Britain’s war in the air. Besides revealing the considerable extent of empire involvement in the British flying services, it demonstrates something of the distinct and nuanced relationships that colonial authorities had with London, and the way this shaped their respective involvement in the empire’s war effort. When 2nd Lieutenant Eric Dibbs of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) arrived in France for his first operational posting in June 1917, he discovered that many of his new colleagues hailed from Britain’s colonial settler societies. ‘Essentially an Empire unit’, is how he described the squadron. ‘We had in it three Australians, a number of Canadians, two South Africans, a Newfoundlander, as well as representatives of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales’. Like Dibbs (himself an Australian) the officers in No. 11 Squadron’s mess all wore the uniform and insignia of the RFC, having eschewed service in their respective dominion forces for a commission in the British service.1 What Dibbs found at No.

    Lieutenant Colonel Walter Oswald Watt OBE, DSO, LdeH, CdeG. and The Oswald Watt Gold Medal. The Man Oswald Watt was a founding member of the Aero Club movement in Australia. After a spectacular First World War career, he became, in 1919, the foundation President of the New South Wales Section of the Australian Aero Club. After two action-packed years in that position and at the age of 43 he tragically died in a drowning accident in Sydney. A wealthy man, he left £500 in his will to the then Australian Aero Club for the establishment of a medal for “the most brilliant performance in the air” in Australia or by an Australian overseas. This award, named the Oswald Watt Gold Medal, continues to this day, administered by the Royal Federation of Aero Clubs of Australia. Born in Bournemouth, England on 11th February 1878, Walter Oswald Watt came to Australia at the age of one, following the death of his mother. He returned to England after ten years, completing his education at Cambridge University with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Returning to Sydney in 1900, he was commissioned in the NSW Scottish Rifles and in 1902 became the aide-de-camp to the NSW State governor. He married in Melbourne, had one son and divorced in 1913. He bought Howlong Station at Carathool NSW and had interests in other cattle stations in New South Wales and Queensland. In 1911 he returned to England and on 1st August 1911 he became the first Australian military officer to obtain a pilot’s licence, flying a Bristol Boxkite at Salisbury Plain.
