* Lieutenant Smart was in command of His
Majesty's Midget Submarine XE-1 and accompanied XE-3 m the successful attack
on a heavy Japanese cruiser [Takeo] in Johore Strait, Singapore. Like XE-3, Lieutenant
Smart also left the believed safe channel during his long approach up the
Singapore Straits and entered mined waters to avoid suspected hydrophone
posts. XE-1's target was a heavy cruiser of the Nachi class berthed about two
miles beyond the Atago cruiser which XE-3 was to attack. Unfortunately XE-1
was delayed in her attack owing to several encounters with surface craft and
instead of passing the boom ahead of XE-3 as planned, actually passed it go
minutes after XE-3. This robbed Lieutenant Smart of the necessary margin of
time to reach his target and withdraw before dark and he accordingly decided
to attack the Atago class cruiser. Unable to get his craft underneath the
target he dropped his main charge close alongside it and withdrew. The passage
involved the same great hazards as those faced by XE-3 and Lieutenant Smart
displayed great courage throughout this hazardous operation.

Rose to rank of Lt.Cdr. Transferred 18.06.1956 to RAF
(Marine Branch) as F/Lt. [504824] on a short service commission, from 01.12.1958
on a permanent commision,
retiring in 26.07.1979 as Sq.Ldr. (01.01.1972). MIIM, MIMgt. R.A.E. Aberporth
(1979-1990).* Stan Smith remembered: "On
D-Day, as a Midshipman RNVR, I was the 1st Lieutenant (second-in-command) of LCT
442, a vessel of the 15th LCT Flotilla in D Squadron of G Force. The captain was
Sub Lieutenant E C Lane, RNVR. We sailed from Southampton at 1700 on 4 June,
expecting to beach in France the next morning. However, the weather was bad and
we were recalled as we were passing the Needles. We secured for the night
alongside an American LST in the Solent, and sailed again on the evening of 5
June. The original plan was that we should carry nine British-built Valentine DD
(swimming) tanks, but after a disastrous exercise in Studland Bay earlier in the
year, in which several Valentines were lost, it was decided that we should carry
American-built Sherman DD tanks. Owing to their greater size, we could only
accommodate five. Also, because they were heavier than the Valentines and needed
a greater depth of water in which to float off, we had to have extensions fitted
to the ramp in the form of shallow U-shaped angle-iron channels into which the
tanks’ tracks fitted. When the ramp was in the raised position, they stuck up
like two huge horns. When the ramp was horizontal, approaching the beach, they
had the potential to trap and detonate any obstacles that got in the way. Our
tanks belonged to the Sherwood Rangers (troop commander Captain W Eldridge),
part of the 50th Northumbrian Division, and we were supposed to launch them
three miles off Jig Green beach at H-Hour minus thirty minutes. On our arrival
at the launch position the sea conditions were unsuitable to launch so, in
accordance with sealed orders, which we were not allowed to open until we were
well out to sea, we beached over the obstacles at H-Hour at Asnelles-sur-Mer. My
job was to supervise the lowering of the ramp, then to stand on the end of it,
very mindful of the ‘horns’, and measure the depth of the water with a sounding
pole. It was sufficiently shallow here to allow the first three tanks to swim a
few yards before touching down on the sand. Then a mortar bomb exploded about
thirty feet behind me on the tank deck. I was unhurt, but one of my sailors was
wounded, and the flotation screens of the two remaining tanks were ripped. The
captain therefore had to drive the landing craft in closer so that these tanks
could leave dry-shod. As they did so, another mortar bomb exploded alongside the
last tank. Captain Eldridge was riding on the turret directing operations, and
must have been mortally wounded. He still managed to get his troop ashore, but
we lost sight of them as they made their way up the beach. By then we were busy
with our own problems. Our landing craft was badly damaged by the first mortar
bomb and by Teller mines, which had blown a 10-foot hole in the port side,
opened up the plating of the port bow and twisted the port rudder
hard-a-starboard. Also, another LCT had broached to across our stern and severed
the stern anchor wire. Having driven the ship so far up the beach, the captain
was having great difficulty getting her off without the stern anchor to heave
on. I was busy raising the ramp, and, with the aid of the coxswain, Leading
Seaman Armstrong, taking care of our casualty. Eventually, our landing craft
slid back into deeper water and floated off. As she moved astern, a stick of
three mortar bombs exploded in the water immediately ahead of us – just about
where I had been standing a few moments before. We made our way to a hospital
ship lying off shore and transferred Able Seaman Laurence into their care. We
then proceeded to a pre-arranged collecting area for damaged vessels and joined
an ‘old crocks’ convoy for a night passage home." |

* For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He led his men with great
dash and determination in an attack, and, having captured the final objective,
he organised and led an attack on a strong point, which he captured. He was
driven out by heavy shell fire, but at once led another attack and regained
and held the position and captured a field gun. He set a magnificent example
of courage, initiative, and leadership.

Of events on the 31 May
1940, Sparkes wrote in his official report:
‘0530 - beaches in sight. 0610 - approached to within the two fathom
line. Hailed by launch. Captain Howson, R.N., Naval Officer in Charge of
the beaches, came on board and said we were to be his flagship. We were
used throughout the day at Bary, towing loaded boats to the destroyers
and, on the return journey, taking empty boats in to the vicinity of the
pier, and letting them drift ashore for a fresh load. On some occasions,
this was varied by embarking troops on board us, letting the boats drift
ashore while we steamed to the destroyers to transfer our load. Our own
launch was lowered and, under F. Barter, Yacht Engineer, and Able Seaman
W. F. Lunn, was employed towing loaded whalers to destroyers. This
routine was maintained throughout the day. It is impossible to give an
accurate figure of the number of men helped, but it is estimated that
between 900-1000 were ferried off. 1930 - heavy bombing raid, four bombs
fell very close to us, causing leaks forward and in the stern tubes.
2000 - left Bray on instructions from Captain Howson and proceeded to
Dover. 0815 - berthed Dover. Special mention is made of the work of
Yacht Engineer F. Barter and Able Seaman W. F. Lunn, who ran the launch
until it was swamped, most of the time under fire and bombing.’ |

His son-in-law Martin D. Jeffes writes: "When my
father-in-law was doing his basic training he was selected as potential officer
material, and told that he would be commissioned after a six-month basic
training period. This is what he served aboard the Alynbank, which, after having
its bomb removed at Portsmouth, after PQ18, was sent to rendezvous with the
Queen Mary off Dakar, to provide a link in the escort of this vessel, which was
en-route from Cape Town to Britain with troops. The Alynbank then went to
Gibraltar to work with the Malta convoys, he thinks, and he left the ship about
this time, at Alexandria, and was flown home in a Dakota, to begin his officer
training at King Alfred. From there he went to a two week navigation course at
Greenwich, before going to Troon to join a group being organised by Lord
Mountbatten, which he calls the Inshore Squadron, consisting of landing craft
and MTB's, and which is where he joined LCT(R)167, and went in it to the
Mediterranean." |
