Flight Lieutenant Saving A Wounded Seaman Who Had Fallen Into The Sea. While a wounded seaman was being passed across in a stretcher, from a cruiser Warrior to the seaplane-carrier Engadine, the rolling of the ships threw him into the water. Flight-Lieutenant Rutland at once jumped overboard and, thanks to his aid, the wounded man was hoisted on board the Engadine, but unfortunately he had been so badly crushed that life was already extinct, Lieutenant Rutland was awarded the Albert Medal for his gallant action, and he also received the D.S.C. for his valuable flying services. |
HMS Engadine Launched : 13th August 1914 Launched for South Eastern and Chatham Railway Company as a ferry on 23rd September 1911. Requisitioned as a Seaplane tender 1914.
