Motor Boat PRINCESS LILLY. - Sub. Lieutenant K.E.A. Bayley, R.N.V.R.
Recommendations.
Sub.Lieutenant K.E.A. Bayley. R.N.V.R.
Left Sheerness with 19 other small boats, escorted by a trawler as guide, as most of the boats had no compass. Half way across the trawler left them. Succeeded in making Dunkirk after giving assistance and many tows to motor-boats which broke down. Spent nearly 30 hours ferrying troops from
Dunkirk and La Panne beaches, displaying considerable ingenuity in working small boats in conjunction with his own craft on a lee shore, under fire from bombing, machine-gunning and German artillery. Had a crew of two civilians and one Naval rating aged 19÷. Displayed determination and leadership of a high order.
Recommended for mention.
Motor Boat TRITON: - Lieutenant Robert Hunter Irving, R.N.R.
Recommendation.
Lieutenant Robert Hunter Irving, R.N.R.
Took over a flotilla of launches from Sheerness to Ramsgate to Bray beach in the darkness with no navigating instruments. From 0500/30 to 1830/31 worked without help ferrying off troops and co-ordinating the activities of other power boats in the vicinity. His boat acted as flagship of Commodore Stephenson in control of embarkation, who, together with other senior officers, comments most favourably on this officer's conduct. Under almost continuous air bombardment and artillery fire in capsized and swamped boats he was inderatigable in his efforts.
Directly responsible for the successful embarkation of hundreds of troops. Set an excellent example of devotion to duty and gallant conduct, and performed a remarkable feat of endurance.
Recommended for decoration.

Operation "DYNAMO" - Recommendations of Personnel.
NAVAL MEDICAL PARTIES.
Naval Medical Officers and ratings were drafted from
H.M.S. PEMBROKE for work in Dunkirk harbour and in the larger personnel vessels on the 29th of May and 4th June.
The work carried out by the whole party was most valuable and efficient, consisting as it did of treating casualties, and operating where possible under exciting and adverse circumstances calling for initiative and improvisation.
It happened that the Medical party sent to personnel vessels voyaged in those whose civilian crews were showing signs of loss of morale, there being a disagreeable air of apprehension amongst the ship's companies. These Medical parties in the midst of their preparations did their utmost to instil better feeling amongst the officers and men of these vessels. Their conduct in all cases was in accordance with the highest traditions of the Serivce and their profession.
Recommendations.
OFFICER.
Surgeon-Commander William Gordon Fitzpatrick. R.N.
With his party worked on Dunkirk Mole, in the
ST. HELIER, MAID OF ORLEANS, MANX MAN and the
PRINCESS MAUD on successive days. He was the
Senior Medical Officer of the whole party from
PEMBROKE and showed high organising abilities and leadership, in adition to his efficient personal treatment of casualties.
Recommended for mention.
