Valiantly he fought
Against Balloons
And the patrols alike
A young man,
In the prime of life
Fought against
Superior numbers
Above the Forêt de
Mormal
Despite horrific
injuries
He won the day
And landed safely
Lt Colonel William
George "Billy" Barker VC, DSO & Bar, MC & Two Bars (3
November 1894 – 12 March 1930)
