Today in 1912, wireless officer Jack Phillips celebrated his 25th - and last - birthday while aboard the RMS Titanic. Born April 11, 1887, in Surrey, senior operator Phillips and his co-operator Harold Bride dutifully remained at their post, sending distress messages until the ship's final minutes. Bride survived the famous disaster, but Phillips did not.

The little girl in this picture is my Grandmother, Thèrése Dubord (née Gorieu) with her brother, Flight Sergeant Raymond Albert Amie Gorieu and my Mémé (Great Grandmother), Alphonsine Gorieu, before he left to fight overseas in WWII. The second picture was taken last year by my cousin, Jennifer Dubord at the memorial site for where the crew of the Handley Page Halifax Mk. II - W7714- LQ-K from No. 405 Squadron, RCAF was shot down near Dearsum, Holland returning from an attack on Bremen, Germany on June 30, 1942. ‘Lest we forget. #rememberanceday2018 #100yeararmistice #lestweforget #poppyday #WWII #wirelessoperator #airgunner #RCAF #W7714 #No405Squadron #alwaysremember #handleypagehalifax #405squadron
This is the claustrophobic rear aspect of interior of a Lancaster Bomber from the wireless operators position. The rear gunner sat at the very end cold and the most vulnerable to enemy action . The stress and trauma from these operations from which their survival chances were so low was never recognised at the time . Come and see our play about one agonising sortie taken from a true story written by our father

One of the most remarkable RAF #stories during #WW2 was that of John Ward.
He was a #WirelessOperator in a #FaireyBattle light #bomber, but was shot down on 10 May 1940, the first day of the #German invasion of the Low Countries. Ward was held captive in a prisoner of war camp in occupied #Poland. One day in April 1941, he managed to escape. Although he was apprehended by the local police, he escaped again and reached the Polish #Resistance.
As a wireless operator, he had expert knowledge of radios and #radio communications. As such, he started building radios for the Polish Home Army and started sending code and telegraph dispatches to #Britain. These were especially vital during the #Warsaw Uprising of 1944, when Ward reported on the situation and repeatedly made demands for #British #military equipment, supplies, assistance and intervention.
He had great admiration and respect for the #Polish people and is still remembered today in Poland as an important member of the Polish Resistance.
We have a Fairey Battle 1, the same type John Ward flew, on display in Hangar 5 at our #London site. We also have a clandestine radio #transmitter as used in the Warsaw Uprising in our #collection.
If you feel inspired by John Ward’s incredible #story, come to the RAF Museum to explore the history of the #RAF. We are open daily from 10.00am. Admission is free.
