Flight Sub-Lieutenant R. A. J. Warneford, R.N. Won The V.V. For Blowing Up A Zeppelin Between Ghent And Brussels.

At 3 oclock on the morning of the 7th June 1915, flight Sub-Lieutenant R. A. J. Warneford, R.N., attacked a Zeppelin in the air, between Ghent and Brussels, at 6,000 feet. He dropped six bombs, and the airship exploded, fell to the ground, and burst for a considerable time. The force of the explosion caused the Morane monoplane to turn upside down. The pilot succeeded in returned fighting the machine, but had to make a forced landing in the enemys country. However, he was able to re-start his engine and returned safely to the aerodrome. Within twenty-four hours he was awarded the V.C., notification being conveyed to him in a telegram from His Majesty the King. Also, the French Authorities conferred upon him the Cross-of a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour, in recognition of his brilliant exploit.
