One incident concerns a Lieutenant Litchfield [Litchford] of the Lincolnshire Regiment, "A party of Republican Officers were surprised by a patrol of Police and Military at Knockroe Drangan. Hopelessly outnumbered... the small party would not comply with the order of 'surrender' and after a short engagement Lieutenants Fleming Lieutenant Patrick Hackett and Adjutant Martin Clancy were shot. The present writer was captured here. On the following evening... our friend Lieutenant Litchfield arrived from Tipperary with his Armoured car & I quickly learned that it was the intention of this officer to carry the dead Republican officers to Tipperary on the back of the car, and that I was to be placed immediately over the dead bodies of my comrades and secured there by means of a rope tied round my body and handcuffs placed on my wrists." - Walsh.Other headings include: "Tipperary Military Barracks"; "An informer in Camp"; "Jokes passed between soldiers and prisoners"; "Hostage taking from Tipperary"; "Fermoy Barracks Cork"; "Sentenced to death"; "Hunger Striking"; "Spike Island"; "Active Resistance"; "Removal to Kilkenny Prison"; "The making of the Tunnel" etc.Sir Peter Strickland (1869–1951), army officer.

The act was passed in 1667 in the wake of the Covenantor rebellion, known as the Pentland Rising. It was sparked by the mistreatment of an old man by soldiers in Dalry, Kirkcudbrightshire. The locals took those soldiers and reinforcements prisoner. A Covenantor army then marched towards Edinburgh under Colonel James Wallace. They were defeated by a government force led by Tam Dalyell of the Binns. Between 40 and 50 Covenanters were killed and up to 85 prisoners taken, many of whom were allegedly tortured. 36 were executed and others were transported to Barbados. Unrest continued over the next two decades, culminating in the period of repression from 1679 to 1688 known as 'The Killing Time'.

F. S. GEARY. 2/Hamps. Rgt.), engraved, extremely fine and toned with ghost dates.36mm diameterThis officer was killed in action at Sannah' s Post, near Thaba N'chu in the Orange Free State, 27th April 1900. The second son of Lieutenant-General Sir Henry Le Guay Geary, K.C.B., he was born in February 1874 and educated at the United Services College, Westward Ho, and at the Royal Military Academy. He was commissioned into the Hampshire Regiment in October 1894 and promoted Lieutenant in August 1897. The 2nd Battalion Hampshire Regiment did not form part of the original Army Corps sent to South Africa in 1899 because it had insufficient men to make it up to war establishment. It did, however, contribute 35 men to the Mounted Infantry, under the charge of Lt. Geary, who therefore proceeded to South Africa in advance of his Regiment (in October 1899) and saw considerable action there. It was during an ambush against a British cavalry brigade that he was "killed in a gallant stand against overwhelming odds."

Second World War Prisoner of War interest: a fascinating and scarce archive of original documents, medals, and secondary ephemera preserved by the late Lieutenant Ernest Boyes Lee, Royal Army Service Corps, who worked on escape maps and intelligence while a P.O.W. and was awarded the France & Germany Star in spite of having been captured by the Germans before the Dunkirk evacuation.Medals: 1939-45 Star; France and Germany Star; War Medal 1939-45; Efficiency Medal (Territorial), Elizabeth II, with second award bar (6792074 PTE. E. B. LEE. R.A.S.C.), mounted for wearing, good very fine, [4]Documents and Epehmera: a large collection including escape maps, correspondence, an article written for the Bank of England's staff journal describing some of the recipient's activities in Oflag VII C Prison Camp, authority for the France and Germany Star (scarce to men taken prisoner prior to D-Day); together with a small number of badges and other personal effects. Round medal 36mm diameter Ernest Boyes Lee served with the British Expeditionary Force in France and was captured by the Germans on the 22nd May 1940. As prisoner number 319 he was interned at Oflag VII C, where from early 1941 he began to receive letters from a friend giving news of the War in coded form, which he was able to disseminate to the other prisoners. The content of the letters appeared harmless to censors, concerned with social matters and trivial seeming news from home; but the writer included allusions to unknown persons and inexplicable events and Lee soon perceived that these were cryptic references to the progress of the war. As Lee himself explains in "Gepruft", a 1951 article for the staff journal of the Bank of England:"T. continued to write regularly. Letter by letter he built up a framework...the key to many of the clues was beyond the reach of all except T's intimate friends...others were simple anagrams or in the form of crossword clues."Examples included imaginary racehorses: "Pike Cave, a filly lacking pace" (Kiev); and "my boy-friend has dumped any amount of luggage personelly [sic] at my home" (an encouraging reference to the build-up of U.S. forces prior to the allied invasion of Europe).Lee was transferred to Oflag VII B late in the same year, where a smuggled radio provided news of the outside world, augmented by ongoing letters. He also took part in the production of escape maps, of which a number are included with this lot. In 1945, with the Allies closing in, the Germans began forced marches of prisoners of war to try and keep them out of the hands of the liberating forces. It is at this point that Lee's story coincides with that of Lieutenant Colonel William Douglas Baird Thompson, D.S.O., M.C.Lt. Col. Thompson, who had been commissioned from the ranks into the Durham Light Infantry in 1915, was decorated for gallantry in action at Arras in 1917 (M.C.) and during the German offensive of March 1918. He was furthermore awarded the French Croix de Guerre for participating in the capture of 85 German soldiers at Cuitron in July 1918. Like Ernest Boyes Lee he was captured by the Germans before the Dunkirk evacuations.On the 14th April 1945 the Germans attempted to march a large party of Allied prisoners from Oflag VII B to Berchtesgaden, where it was intended that they be held as hostages. This failed when the column was mistakenly attacked by American P-47 Thunderbolts, killing 12 and injuring 40. Thompson initiated a retreat to the camp, and his orders were confirmed by the Germans. On the evening of the 15th the prisoners set off on a second march that led, by the night of the 23rd, to Stalag VII A at Moosburg in Bavaria. The following day Thompson was confirmed in command of the British forces, which he put on an operational footing, freeing Russian prisoners from the cells at Moosburg, and securing a bridge for the use of the advancing U.S. forces. Although many senior Germans, including the camp commandant and the mayor of Moosburg, were keen to capitulate peacefully, other elements, such as the S.S Division Charlemagne, were not; and in the confused situation that followed the surrender of the Commandant, there was fighting in the vicinity of the camp. Thompson stated that on the 29th April "First tanks of the 14 Am Div US Army broke through the Kommandantur, certain amounts of firing within the camp, Able to arm guards and piquets."It was in recognition of these operational services that the prisoners who served under Thompson's command, Ernest Boyes Lee among them, were deemed eligible for the France and Germany Star.

The Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress is a renowned World War II-era heavy bomber aircraft developed by Boeing for the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). It was one of the most iconic and heavily produced bombers of the war, known for its ability to withstand damage and carry a significant bomb load. Here are some key features and details about the Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress:1. **Development**: The B-17 Flying Fortress was developed in the 1930s as a response to a USAAF request for a high-altitude, long-range bomber. Boeing's Model 299 prototype won the competition and evolved into the B-17 series.2. **Heavy Bomber**: The B-17 was designed as a heavy bomber capable of carrying a large bomb load over long distances. It played a significant role in daylight precision bombing raids over Europe during World War II.3. **Crew and Armament**: The B-17G Flying Fortress typically had a crew of ten, including the pilot, co-pilot, bombardier, navigator, radio operator, and gunners. It was heavily armed, with multiple machine gun positions to defend against enemy fighters.4. **Defensive Armament**: The B-17G featured a variety of machine gun positions, including the iconic "chin turret" under the nose, top turret, ball turret on the underside of the aircraft, waist gunner positions, and a tail gunner position. These defensive armaments were essential for protecting the bomber from enemy fighter attacks.5. **Bomb Load**: The B-17G could carry a bomb load of up to 8,000 pounds (3,600 kg) of ordnance, which was a significant payload for the time. It was used for precision bombing of strategic targets, including industrial complexes, military installations, and infrastructure.6. **Range and Endurance**: The Flying Fortress had a considerable operational range, which allowed it to conduct long-range missions over enemy territory. Its robust construction and redundant systems made it capable of returning to base even when severely damaged.7. **Iconic Appearance**: The B-17G is known for its distinctive appearance, with its nose art and prominent chin turret. It earned its nickname "Flying Fortress" due to its heavily armed and fortified design.8. **Service History**: The B-17 Flying Fortress served with distinction in all major theaters of World War II, including Europe, the Pacific, and North Africa.
