FLT LT REGINALD ALEXANDER JOHN WARNEFORD VC (15 OCTOBER 1891 – 17 JUNE 1915)


from the ABC set IN THE NAME OF WAR AND WARRIORS

Valiantly he fought
Against Zeppelins
And the patrols alike
A young man,
In the prime of life
Died an ironic death
Not taken by the bullet
Or by the bomb
But in a flying accident
When the wings folded
On a new kite
During a test flight
