EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of officers from the esteemed 56 Squadron of the Royal Flying Corps (R.F.C.) during World War 1. The image, dating back to approximately 1916, depicts a mix of captains, lieutenants, and a major, standing in two rows. In the back row, from left to right, we find Lieutenants G.C. Maxwell, Melville, Lehmann, Knight, Barlow, and Knaggs. Their stern expressions and neatly pressed uniforms exude a sense of discipline and determination. The front row includes Lieutenants Lewis and Leach, Major Blomfield, Captain Albert Ball, V.C., and Lieutenant Reginald Hoidge. Among these officers, Captain Albert Ball stands out as a notable figure. He was a decorated British flying ace, credited with a total of 40 aerial victories during the war, making him the most successful pilot in the R.F.C. at that time. Ball's gallantry earned him the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration in the British military. Major Blomfield, the senior officer in the group, is also worth mentioning. He was a highly experienced aviator who had previously served in the Boer War and the Balkan Wars. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these brave men, who played a crucial role in the history of military aviation during World War 1.
