Postcard of the week (19.02.2017)
WWI hero "Air Commodore Charles Rumney Samson" coming ashore in 1912.
Air Commodore Charles Rumney Samson CMG, DSO & Bar, AFC (8 July 1883 – 5 February 1931) was a British naval aviation pioneer. He was one of the first four officers selected for pilot training by the Royal Navy and was the first person to fly an aircraft from a moving ship. He also commanded the first British armoured vehicles used in combat. Transferring to the Royal Air Force on its creation in 1918, Samson held command of several groups in the immediate post-War period and the 1920s. The flying boats operated from Felixstowe across from Harwich, which was one of the busiest military bases in W.W.1 with the Harwich Force of ships, submarines and Hydroplanes.
