AS COMMANDER Richard Frank Jolly lay mortally wounded on the bridge of the destroyer Mohawk in the Germans' first big air raid—on the Firth of Forth-he said: "Leave me—go and look after the others."

Commander Jolly insisted on seeing his ship back to her berth. Five hours later he died.

The official story of his heroism was given in a "heroes' sup- plement" of the London Gazette, which announced the posthumous award to him of the medal of the Military Division of the 0.B.E.

The Gazette supplement also an nounced that ten other destroyer com- manders and one submarine commander win the D.S.O., while thirteen (in-Afraid to Dream, The Little Boy Twenty Million Sweethearts" Selce- cluding the skippers of a trawler and a drifter) win the D.S.C.

The thirteen D.S.C.s are believed to cover minesweeping and convoy actions, as well as probably effective actions against submarines..

Eight of the destroyers mentioned were veterans of the last war. Besides Commander Jolly, who was forty-three, one other officer and thirteen men of the Mohawk lost their lives in the Firth of Forth air attack.

This is the first official story of the commander who clung to life until his ship was home, as told by the London Gazette recently:-
