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 Warrior Launched : 25th November 1905 Disabled at the Battle of Jutland, 31st May 1916, foundered and sank 1st June 1916. |
