Quantity:

K17 was one of the unusual K-class submarines operating in the Royal Navy in World War One.  This class were unusual in that they were powered by steam while operating on the surface to allow them the speed to keep up with the fleet.  They were also unusual in their notorious poor fortune, gaining the nickname 'Kalamity Class'.  None of the class ever successfully engaged with the enemy, and yet 6 were lost in accidents, including K17.  Known as the 'Battle of May Island', a series of unfortunate collisions between submarines and surface vessels in the misty darkness of 31st January - 1st February 1918 saw both submarines K4 and K17 sunk, with several other vessels damaged.  From a crew of 56, just 9 men escaped from K17 and just 8 survived the freezing waters.  Here, K17 is shown cruising on the surface with funnels up in 1917.

Quantity:

 On the 11th of August 1918, the Armstrong Whitworth FK8 C8602 of Ferdinand 'Freddie' West and his observer / gunner John Haslam was one of hundreds of aircraft tasked with locating German reserves on the ground to assist the Army.  A gap in the clouds revealed a concentration of German troops - they dived low to assess their number but coming under intense fire returned to the clouds.  Not satisfied that the enemy positions had been identified correctly, West dived again.  Attacked by several aircraft and wounded, West pressed on with his low flight to gather further intelligence.  Finding 'troops, guns and vehicles in all directions', they knew they had found the German reserves.  Turning for home they encountered more German scouts.  This time, the attack left their aircraft badly damaged and West was hit in the leg by five bullets, one of which severed an artery.  With Haslam taking aim at the fighters while West tried to take evasive action, they managed to escape.  Half fainting through blood loss, West fashioned a tourniquet from a leg of his shorts, and drifting into semi-consciousness, landed the aircraft behind Allied lines.  He insisted that he should personally pass on the intelligence to his No.8 Sqn superiors, and lost consciousness after doing so.  Sir John Salmond, in charge of the Air Force in France, put him forward for the Victoria Cross which was awarded for 'unparalleled pluck and endurance. The valour displayed by this officer has throughout been a magnificent example to his flight, which he has inspired with his devotion, courage and power of endurance.' Despite losing his leg, with an artificial limb he returned to flying duties after the war and remained in the Royal Air Force until the end of World War Two.  He died in 1988.

 Pilot Joseph Frantz and his observer Louis Quénault have the unique distinction of recording the first ever aerial victory by an aircraft using weaponry.  On 5th October 1914, Quénault used magazines of ammunition of the machine gun mounted on their Voisin III craft, with its incredibly primitive appearance, and continued with rifle fire once it had failed.  Their prey, an Aviatik returned fire, but was observed to crash into trees following the combat - the first recorded aircraft to be shot down by another.

Quantity:

 Erich Lowenhardt was one of the most famous German Aces of World War One.  A rival of the likes of Ernst Udet and Lothar von Richthofen in number of victories, he racked up an impressive 54 victories before his death in August 1918, caused by a failed parachute when he bailed out after a collision.  He is depicted here, not in his final Fokker D.VII, but in an Albatros D.III, claiming one of his tally of 9 observation balloons - this one in May 1918.  The fortunate balloon observer has managed to take to his parachute to escape this time, a measure the observers were often forced to employ by the German balloon busters.

Quantity:

 Known as Freddie, West was the first pilot of the newly formed Royal Air Force to be awarded the Victoria Cross.  He is shown here during a bombing mission to Merricourt on 19th June 1918.  Jumped by enemy fighters, he was forced to evade his assailants by weaving through German barrage balloons.  Successfully shaking off the Fokkers in Armstrong-Whitworth FK.8 C8594, he continued to his intended target.  Less than two months later, and in a similar aircraft, he undertook the mission which earned him his VC, but cost him an amputated leg.  He remained in the RAF until the end of World War Two and lived until 1988, aged 92.

Quantity:

 The airship was formidable as an anti-submarine weapon in the latter stages of World War One.  The British formed patrols guarding the coasts of the British Isles and significantly reduced the toll on shipping that the German U-boats were taking.  Here, the C or Coastal Class airship C-9, commanded by Flight Commander (later Major) James G Struthers has discovered and successfully bombed another victim - one of seven in total he claimed during he war.  C-9 was the most successful airship of her class, flying over 2,500 hours and covering 68,201 miles in her four year career.  Her commander, James G Struthers, was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and two Bars.

Flying with Jasta 7, Willi Nebgen scored four confirmed victories but sources suggest he shared in at least two others, meaning he most likely attained the magic number of 5 victories to make him an Ace.  Shown here in his Fokker D.VII in the summer of 1918, it was painted all black except for the green and white diagonal flash on the fuselage.  He was killed in action on 22nd October 1918 and is buried in West Flanders, Belgium.

 19th July 1918 - the Tondern raid, the first raid in history carried out from an aircraft carrier.  Captain Dickson is shown in his Sopwith Camel 2F.1 departing HMS Furious just after 3am, and along with 5 other aircraft would successfully attack the German Zeppelin sheds at Tondern in Denmark.  They destroyed two airships in their hangar, and the entire base was subsequently abandoned.  7 aircraft began the raid : one turned back with engine trouble, three landed in Denmark afterwards while another failed to return to the British fleet.  Only Dickson and Captain B Smart ditched in the sea near the British ships and were recovered.  For this raid, Dickson was awarded the Distinguished Service Order.  He later moved to HMS Revenge and HMS Queen Elizabeth then flew on HMS Argus and was a test pilot at the Royal Aircraft Establishment. In World War Two he helped to plan the Allied invasion of occupied Europe. He remained in the RAF post war, retiring in 1959 as Marshal of the Royal Air Force. He died in 1987.

 Recording 18 individual victories plus another 11 shared with other pilots, Leonard 'Tich' Rochford scored most of his victories in the Sopwith Camel.  However, under the stewardship of the more experienced Raymond Collishaw - who became the second highest scoring Candian Ace of the war - he flew his early missions with No.3 Naval Air Squadron in the Sopwith Pup.  He had forced two Albatros down out of control in March and May 1917 before the victory depicted here on 7th July 1917.  In Sopwith Pup N6162 he shared in the destruction of an enemy seaplane with 4 other pilots north of Ostend.  He is one of the top 30 Commonwealth Aces of the war, and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and Distinguished Service Cross with Bar.  He died in 1986 aged 90.

 Having been wounded early in World War One as a soldier on the Western Front, Julius Buckler had become a pilot with Jasta 17 by November 1916.  He scored his first victory that December, one of almost 30 enemy aircraft.  Frequently out of action due to wounds including simultaneous broken arms, he is seen here flying his Albatros D.III names <i>Mops</i>, the aircraft he used to claim his first balloon victory on 26th April 1917.  He went on to score 7 balloon victories and was awarded the <i>Blue Max</i>.  He died in 1960 aged 66.

 Fritz Höhn was a German Ace of World War One despite only scoring his first victory in the final month of 1917.  He is depicted here in his Pfalz D.III of Jasta 21s in the spring of 1918.  The red markings on this aircraft were intended to confuse the aim of enemies, but the teddy bear he carried behind the cockpit was just for luck.  He later flew a Fokker D.VII and in total claimed 11 enemy aircraft and 10 observation balloons, scoring his last victory on the 3rd of October 1918, the same day on which he himself was shot down and fatally wounded by a French aircraft.

 Studying medicine at the outbreak of World War One, Friedrich Noltenius was a decorated artillery soldier by the time he started flying missions in mid-1918.  Flying with Jasta 27, he scored 13 victories before transferring to Jasta 6 in September 1918.  A noted balloon buster, he is shown here in his personalised Fokker D.VII of Jasta 6 during October 1918.  Scoring a total of 21 victories by the end of the war, his 20th entitled him to the award of the Blue Max to add to his Württemberg Knight's Cross, but the end of the war prevented him from receiving it.  After the war he returned to medicine and became a doctor, but was killed in a flying accident in 1936.

Highly decorated with awards including the Knight's Cross and Blue Max, he was killed in a crash in the last days of October 1917 while performing aerobatics in his new Fokker Dr.I.
