Lieutenant Rhodes-Moorhouse Flying Over Courtrai to Bomb the Railway by Allan Stewart.- Cranston Fine Arts Historical Art

Lieutenant Rhodes-Moorhouse Flying Over Courtrai to Bomb the Railway  by Allan Stewart.


Lieutenant Rhodes-Moorhouse Flying Over Courtrai to Bomb the Railway by Allan Stewart.

On April 26th 1915, 2nd Lieutenant William Barnard Rhodes-Moorhouse, of the Special Reserve, Royal Flying Corps, set out from the British lines for the purpose of raiding the railway at Courtrai. On reaching the place he planed down to a height of 300 ft, and, under heavy shell fire, bombed the railway near the station. As he started on his return journey he received a mortal wound, but with great pluck and determination kept control of his aeroplane. He flew back, at a very low altitude, a distance of 35 miles to his starting point, and reported the success of his undertaking. He subsequently died of his wounds, but for his most conspicuous bravery a posthumous award of the VC was made.
