Defence & War Medals to Lieut Eric Jack Eames RA.
Originally recommended for the BEM, he was then
awarded the MC, his citation reads 'In January 1942 this
officer was in command of a Light A.A. Troop at Isola
Point with guns sited round a vulnerable position near
the Dockyard. For a long time the Troop was in the thick
of the bombing and he could always be seen at one or
other controlling or assisting in the firing of his guns. He
imbued all ranks of his Troop with the aggressive spirit
that was in him. In February of the same year this officer
was entrusted with the maintenance of telephone
communications of Light A.A. Regiment which included
the Dockyard, Delimara and Kalafrana in its area.
Repairs to lines were necessary everyday throughout a
prolonged period of intensive bombing and the work he
was called upon to do was generally in the more
vulnerable and dangerous positions. He was untiring in
his work and never allowed bombing to interfere with
him. It was entirely due to his efforts that the
Commanding Officer could keep in touch with all his
guns.' This superb lot includes original MC case,
named OHMS Medal box, (lived West Wickham, Kent.)
Buckingham Palace letter, photos, letters, notes,
telegrams, etc. Much copied research.
