Summary[edit]
DescriptionBristol Scout C (1611) flown by Lanoe Hawker in his Victoria Cross-earning military engagement on July 25th, 1915. (49177372226).jpg | On 25 July 1915 Captain Lanoe Hawker attacked three German aircraft in succession. The first aerial victory for Hawker that day occurred after he emptied a complete drum of bullets from his aircraft's single Lewis machine gun into a German aircraft which went spinning down. The second victory saw a German aircraft driven to the ground damaged, and the third saw a German aircraft – an Albatros C.I of FFA 3 – burst into flames and crash. For this feat he was awarded the Victoria Cross. |
