The 1939-45 War Memorial
Prologue
The Headmaster's Report on Speech Day, 1939, concluded
with these words:
"Tomorrow 48 of the boys here present will have spent their last day at
school; full of the hopes and ambitions of youth, they are going out into
this very troubled world. That they will prove themselves worthy of the
school, I am confident.
The Address given at the
Memorial Service at Campbell College on Sunday, 10th November, 1946
We are met here to-day to pay
tribute to the memory of those former members of the school whose names have
been recited as we stood - those who went and did not return. It is
seemly that this service of remembrance should be held in this place, for
here in this hall was centred their life at Campbell, here each day, morning
and evening, they met for prayers, here they sat with you on festal days, on
Speech Days, at concerts, at plays. Here in these buildings they lived
and learnt and grew to manhood. Here and in the beautiful grounds in
which these buildings stand, they walked and talked, worked and played, made
friends and learnt, largely unconsciously, the happiness that comes from
working with others and for others.
Here, too, in the years between the wars, on each
returning Armistice Day, they stood, in silence, as we have done to-day, and
in remembrance of the service unto death of another generation, and
dedicated their own lives, as we shall shortly do, to the glory of God and
the service of their fellow men. Four of those, whom we now remember,
in their day, in the name of the school, laid their wreath on the War
Memorial. Twice in the lives of the older among us we have seen the
spirit of service of a generation tested to the full. Twice we have
seen the Sons of Campbell, when the test came, answer the call.
It was my privilege to receive during the war years
many letters, strange minglings of grave and gay, from old boys on service.
Last week I re-read some of these, and I recalled how often, when I received
them, the thoughts that they expressed made me very proud of them, and at
the same time very humble to feel that they, in the pride and strength of
youth, could write so simply as they did of the part they were playing in
the fight for freedom, and so fondly of the school which had nurtured them.
Nameless they must be, but I think that the few short extracts from some of
these letters which I am going to read represent the feelings which,
expressed or unexpressed, were very common to them all.
"We had a rotten time for the last ten days. When we were going back,
I often used to think of what we so often heard at Campbell, that an
officer's first duty was to look after his men, and that kept me from
thinking too much about my own troubles."
And this -
"I am in hospital now, and though I hate the actual fighting, I want to get
back as soon as I can. The chaps are grand and I don't want them to
think that I have let them down."
And this one, written by one Campbellian about a school friend serving with
the same battalion -
"He knew he was going to be killed quite definitely. He had already
written letters to the Padre and myself to be opened on his death, and they
showed that he was quite prepared for it. I could not have made a more
fortunate choice in a friend."
And this from a letter whose writer had already answered the call before it
reached me -
"You know how much Campbell did for me. Should I have the misfortune
to be one of the many unfortunate ones, I can at least be a credit to a very
fine school."
And this in quite a different vein, but would you wish it otherwise? -
"This must be the last week of the summer term. Sunday evening's
good-bye service in hall, the concert, speech day with the prefects telling
their story, and the band in all its glory at the garden party and the
fragments for the whole school in the dining hall afterwards. Here we
are sweltering in the heat, but I can see it all just as if I was still at
school."
Grave and gay - with sunshine in their hearts and
laughter in their eyes - so we shall always think of them.
Rank and decorations have no place in the roll which
has been called to-day. Not for these are they honoured, but because
they have enriched by the gift of their lives the ideas of Duty and Courage
which we believe are the foundations, in peace as in war, of all that is
best in our race and in this School - and have joined that cloud of
witnesses with which we are encompassed about for our example and
encouragement.
In the 1944 edition of "Poetry of To-Day" appeared the
lines with which this tale is closed. Written by a still young
Campbellian, himself on active service, they seem a fitting end to our
tribute here to-day -
"We knew them as our comrades. We shall raise
heads that are proud with sorrow when men tell
Of brave young souls that stood and fought and fell, and left to us their
heritage of days.
We shall remember, on the paths we blaze, the land, the hopes they loved and
guarded well,
We shall be still, touched deeply by the spell, of gratitude they leave with
us always.
The future is not ours to take or squander; these comrades of our boyhood,
it is theirs.
Where Freedom lives, where Poverty is slain, There shall their spirit dwell,
their footsteps wander
Over the hills; and in our thoroughfares, their selfless accents shall be
heard again."
NE OBLIVISCARIS
The Roll of Honour
These men were among those who, at the call of King
and Country, left all that was dear to them, endured hardness, faced danger,
and finally passed out of the sight of man by the path of duty and
self-sacrifice, giving up their own lives that others might live in freedom.

A decoration symbol enclosed in brackets means that
the award was made before the 1939-1945 war.
A number in brackets after the word "Despatches" indicates the number of
mentions when this is more than one.
The Roll of Service was compiled during the course of
the war by Mr. C. R. Beaven and Colonel W. D. Gibbon. The editing and
preparation for the press was done by Major C. A. Bowen and Mr. I.
Felix-Jones. The story of the College at Portrush and the history of
the buildings when in military occupation was written by Colonel Gibbon, Mr.
R. Groves, and Mr. I. Felix-Jones. Information on the occupation was
kindly supplied by the A.D.M.S. North Ireland District, the A.O.C. Northern
Ireland and Mrs. M. W. Chambers. The arduous task of looking up
addresses was largely performed by Mr. E. J. Garrett, and a great deal of
help in typing and checking was given by Mrs. J. B. Cloke, Miss M. Long and
Mr. K. Malinovsky.
Summary

The Story of
Campbell College 1939-46
The crisis of 1938 may be said to have left
few in doubt as to the shape of things to come. Though it was
perhaps not generally known, a dispersal area for the School in case of
bombing had been arranged in the Craigantlet Hills even before the
"Peace in our time" declaration; but it was not until the Summer term of
1939 that the construction of air raid shelters began. Before the
end of that term, three shelters, each to hold a house, had been
completed, the digging and construction being done entirely by the boys
themselves under direction and supervision during out-of-school hours.
They were completed for both boarder and day-boy houses by voluntary
labour of masters and boys during the Summer holiday, so that all was
ready by the beginning of the Christmas term for full-scale air raid
rehearsals. The provision and handling of fire-fighting apparatus,
the organisation of the black-out, anti-has training, and an A.R.P.
course for senior boys and masters, all took up much leisure time during
the first term of the war. Out of doors too, through the autumn
and winter, parties of boys worked with their masters to plough up an
additional thirty acres of land to provide food, and others collected
masses of leaves to make fertiliser. Their efforts were such that
the resulting crop maintained the school in vegetables throughout the
following year.
During this time too the O.T.C. had increased in strength, and its
numbers were swelled still further at the beginning of the school year
by the addition of seventy recruits. In October ten cadets of
military age, who were already in possession of Certificate "A" were
attested at the newly formed reception unit at Queen's University, and
were then sent back to school until required by the War Office for
officer training. Members of the staff too in steadily increasing
numbers left to join or rejoin the services, so that eventually fifteen
of the combined College and Preparatory School staffs were on service.
Yet, though by the end of the first Christmas term of the war, much had
been accomplished, and activity had been considerable, there had been no
sign of the blow that was to fall. True, the gun had gone to play
its part and be melted down, and was no more seen in front of the
College, but the Christmas holidays of 1940 with their subdued
festivities passed quietly enough. It was not until late in the
Easter term following that the shadow of coming events fell on
Netherleigh, Ormiston and the Sanatorium, all of which passed into the
hands of the War Department to form a temporary military hospital.
Nevertheless, the adjustments necessary to accommodate the whole school
in the main building were accomplished smoothly enough before the Summer
tern began and once more school was "as usual." Before the Summer
term was over, however, a fleeting detachment of cadets of the Fleet Air
Arm were quartered on the school, housed in the Upper Long, to be
followed by a more permanent contingent of the R.A.F. who took over part
of the grounds, the pavilion and the gymnasium. During the last
week of term the final blow fell; the whole school with the exception of
the Preparatory School at Cabin Hill was requisitioned to accommodate
No. 24 General Hospital which had just arrived from England. With
Speech Day abandoned and the advance party of the hospital already
bivouacked in tents on the Belmont Road fields, the school broke up to
reassemble in September at the Northern Counties Hotel in Portrush.
Air Raid Shelters at Belmont
The events of that Summer term had been stirring in other ways too.
The grim war news, invasion of the low countries and end of the "phoney"
war had been reflected in the formation of the College Company of the
L.D.V., raised from members of the staff and senior boys. This
became responsible for local security on the estate and neighbouring
roads as well as for training other local units of the L.D.V.
Meantime too the playing fields had taken on a strange appearance, and
became studded overnight with hurdles, goal-posts, cricket screens, and
every shape and form of improvised landing obstacle. The boys too
were active during this first year of the war in making contributions in
kind to the Royal Irish Fusiliers comforts fund, to the Ulster A.A.
Brigade, to the library scheme for the forces in Ulster, and in money to
the Governor's Fund. To these later was added the regular dispatch
of parcels of books to Old Campbellian prisoners of war. Yet,
during all this time, amid all the strange happenings, the ordinary work
of the school as well as all cultural and athletic activities had to be
carried on vigorously. The policy was "On the one hand preparing
the boys to serve the country best in war, and on the other, even more
important, preparing them to take their place in the post-war world and
to help to solve its problems.
The College at Portrush in the Northern Counties
Hotel
If the main building of the College during the last weeks of that Summer
term had been a curious place, with the army half in and the school half
out, with a curiously hybrid population, half military, half academic,
flowing through its corridors, up and down stairs, and in and out of
doorways, the spectacle at Portrush was perhaps an even stranger one.
The school property, apart from the most valuable equipment and
scientific apparatus, which had been stored at Cabin Hill and Strathearn
Schools temporarily, had been amassed in the alleys, five courts, and on
the drill court, ready for transportation to Portrush. An advance
party had gone ahead to prepare the way for the invasion, and the
beginning of September saw this party established with the dismantling
party of the L.M.S. staff still in the hotel. There they received
the 110 lorry loads of school equipment in pouring rain. A
detached observer watching the masses of furniture being piled in front
of the hotel in the torrential rain would have doubted the human
possibility of the school's opening by the advertised date. Yet by
the 27th of September through the combined efforts of the staff and
senior boys the hotel had been converted into a school complete with
four house areas, assembly hall, dining room, library, workshop,
classrooms, and perhaps the greatest feat of all, a science department
with a chemistry laboratory in the old roof gardens, and physics and
biology laboratories hewn out of the attics. With the slipper
baths adapted to serve as air raid shelters, one could say that
"Operation Seachange" was successfully concluded, and the school opened
for the great adventure.
During the first term at Portrush, the Christmas term of 1940, the
school gradually adapted itself to its new surroundings. Friendly
contacts were soon established with the residents, and this indeed to
the end of the exile was one of its happiest features, despite the fact
that the town had already given shelter to the Ministries of Education
and Finance, as well as to Stranmillis Training College. Sunday
mornings saw us taking our places in the Parish Church where the
prefects continued to read the lessons, or in the Presbyterian Church
where Campbell voices augmented the choir. The new styled J.T.C.
and newly formed A.T.C. paraded in front of the hotel, whilst P.T.
classes were held on the lawns, and the playing of the Campbell band
soon became one of the features of the town. The platoon of the
L.D.V., soon to become an independent unit of the Home Guard, formed for
a time the nightly guard for the O.P. on Ramore Head, until its place
was taken by the Royal Navy. Campbell bugles sounded at the
Remembrance Service, and the head prefect took his place with
representatives of the town in placing the Campbell wreath on their war
memorial. By the end of term, townspeople formed a large part of
the audience at the school concert, and we were no longer strangers in a
strange land.
Although by adaptation and improvisation, Campbell had secured a
temporary home better than many schools across the water, it was
undoubtedly much harder hit than any other school in Ireland by the
exigencies of the war. No account of the fortunes of the school
during the war years would therefore by complete without some attempt to
estimate the effect on the outlook of the boys and the tome of the
school generally of five and a half years of exile. Clearly, to
expect the school to return quite unchanged after its period of exile
would be ridiculous, for when eventually the school did reopen in
Belmont, in February, 1946, not one boy who came back with it had been
at school in the main building. In other ways too the contrast
could scarcely have been more marked. At Belmont, with its
spacious playing fields all around it, the school enjoyed relative
privacy, though in fact it was a school of both boarders and day boys.
At Portrush, though there were fewer day boys, and these were attached
to boarding houses, contact with the outside world was immediate and
continuous, for as one stepped out of school, one found oneself
immediately on the main street of a seaside town where all one's
deficiencies of dress could immediately be observed. But, if the
bicycle was necessary to go to the playing fields, it gave the greater
freedom which was a help to the natural historian; if hockey pitches
were few, the smooth sands improved the standard of many; and if the
cricket pitch had hazards, the home team generally mastered these to the
benefit of their bowling analysis. In general, formal games loomed
less large in the life of the school, and were played for the sake of
the game or the house. The general lack of space too had an
undeniable effect. At Portrush, for the first time the members of
a house worked and slept together as a self-contained unit, thus giving
a reality to house spirit which perhaps it had not had before. The
absence of studies made life more intimate if less comfortable, whilst
the substitution of small hotel bedrooms for spacious dormitories, and
cramped classroom and dining-room space, made easy the deterioration of
good manners and the loss of traditional customs. There is no
doubt however that the general improvisation which was continually
necessary brought something of the spirit of adventure out of the boys,
whilst the fact that they were always on view and could not be
continually supervised meant that much more must be now left to the
individual in maintaining the standards of the school. It is
indeed undoubtedly true that all those who were continually in touch
with the school at Portrush remarked the bearing and high standard of
conduct of the boys under these trying conditions. Perhaps most
important of all, a great deal of responsibility fell on the senior
boys, more and more so as time went on. By the very nature of
things the staff was continually changing, and it was more and more
difficult with many temporary members of staff of both sexes and varying
ages to maintain the customs and traditions which had been accepted at
home in Belmont. These changes were seen amongst the senior boys
too, for many of them went off at various times through the year to
short university courses in preparation for the services, so that whilst
formerly it was usual for a prefect to remain in office for a full year
this now became exceptional. yet the whole of the physical
training of the school was run during this period by senior boys who had
been on courses. Indeed the way in which the seniors grew in
stature and shouldered their responsibilities at a critical time was
quite remarkable. This enormous adventure, this tremendous
upheaval and uprooting, following on a time of activity and uncertainty
during the first months of the war at Belmont might well with all its
disappointments have ended in disaster. That is did not do so was
in no small measure due to the ability of the senior boys to rise to the
new responsibilities which without warning were thrust upon them, and to
the loyalty of the boys who faced manfully the difficulties and
disappointments with which they were inevitably and continually faced.
It gave proof, if proof were needed, that the Campbell boys and the
Campbell way of life were sound. Looking back one can see that the
evacuation clearly taught the school some valuable lessons. Life
at Campbell before the war was very pleasant and east, perhaps too easy.
Things desired were easily obtained; facilities for every sort of game
and out-of-school activity were there without effort, and were perhaps
taken too much for granted. At Portrush the school learnt to do
without and to do so cheerfully. They learnt too the most
practical lessons of doing things for themselves rather than having them
done for them, to improvise, to mend and make do, to realise at first
hand and perhaps for the first time the difficulties those less
fortunate than themselves have always to face. Life was simpler
and in that way better for it. These were real lessons worth
learning, and certainly a fine preparation for the more austere post-war
world.
This then is the account of the main school which was evacuated to
Portrush, but in order to see the whole picture a digression must now be
made to recount the fortunes of Cabin Hill. Though Cabin Hill was
originally requisitioned with the College, it was recovered almost
immediately from the grasp of the War Department through the kindly
offices of the Northern Ireland Government, and so kept the Campbell
flag flying in Belfast. It did so by changing its identity from
that of a purely Preparatory School to a school in which those day
preparatory boys, who for one reason or another could not go to
Portrush, could continue their education up to the Senior Certificate
stage. So much so in fact that when Campbell finally did return
the oldest and youngest boys at Cabin Hill were respectively 18 and 6.
This mere statement indicates the difficulties of the metamorphosis, for
added to this disparity of ages were those of the limited accommodation
available, the usual wartime staffing difficulties with members of staff
on service, and the ever increasing numbers clamouring for admission.
Despite all these handicaps, scholastically its reputation was not only
maintained, but enhanced, for apart from producing a steady stream of
Junior Scholars, it began to produce a good percentage of successful
Junior and later Senior Certificate candidates. The production of
home-grown food too was prodigious, serving not only itself but the
College at Portrush for part of the time with vegetables, and from its
home-grown oats averaging an annual production of some 15,000 eggs.
It began too to produce football sides, some of them of no mean calibre.
In Victory savings week its members contributed over £550, and in
addition the school was able soon to furnish an efficient platoon of the
J.T.C. The school too was more fortunate than the main College in
that it suffered no damage from bombing. Indeed visitors to the
school on the afternoon following a heavy air raid on Belfast, seeing
the boys playing cricket as usual, could not but feel that Cabin Hill
was in good hands and living up to its high reputation. When
finally in January, 1946, it resumed its preparatory status, it did so
with a population of 210 compared with the pre-war figure of 95; its
record had indeed been one of which both the College and the Preparatory
School could well be proud.
The Jubilee year of the College found the main school still at Portrush,
and even after the celebration of V.E. day with a bonfire and later a
dance, which made further history when members of neighbouring girls'
schools were invited, still there was no sign of the College being
derequisitioned. It was indeed not until the end of the Summer
holidays that there were indications that the College might soon be
recovered from its present use which was proving all too useful.
In October however a start was made to get the College back into shape
for the Easter term, and it was then formally derequisitioned.
Masters too began to come back from service and there was a t last a
feeling that the end of the long exile was really in sight. But,
if the evacuation had been a formidable task, the return was to prove no
less so. Not that the transportation presented any great
difficulties or even the resorting of goods and chattels, for with huts
available at Belfast this could be organised in an orderly and leisurely
way quite unaffected by the elements. The wholesale changes made
by the War Department in adapting the College for use as a hospital had
all eventually to be undone. In addition the myriads of huts
studded round the grounds had to be dealt with. In became clear
too that the Government wished to retain Netherleigh, as well as the
huts covering the drill court, to accommodate the Ministries of
Education and Agriculture. These problems had to be solved and
they were not lessened by the ever increasing difficulties of securing
both labour and materials. The building had first to be stripped,
for what had once been a classroom now housed rows of baths, while
changing rooms had become operation theatres or X-ray rooms.
Partitions had sprung up everywhere, the gymnasium was filled from floor
to ceiling with racks which made the general store, and the cubicles
taken down most carefully and stored away in 1940 had alas! disappeared.
Once the demolitions were finished there started the task of
rehabilitation, which involved extension to the hot water and electrical
systems, as well as a complete redecoration of the school. Apart
from the huts on "the hen-run" for which many uses were found, and those
required by the Ministry, the huts were steadily removed, and it was
possible to get the school started again in its old home in February,
1946. Over seventy boys joined us immediately from the Preparatory
School and we were united at last. The school, after five years'
and one term's exile, re-entered into its heritage.
The College Buildings Under Military
Occupation
The story of the military occupation of the College buildings centres
largely round its use as a hospital, but during the first year of the
war units both of the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force were housed in
the College while the school were still in occupation. In June,
1940, about thirty cadets of the Fleet Air Arm, most under-graduates who
were training at Sydenham, were billeted in the main building, sleeping
in the Upper Long and messing in the College Dining Hall along with the
boys.
At the end of June No. 88 Squadron R.A.F., equipped with battle craft
late of the Advance Striking Force, B.E.F., arrived at Sydenham and took
over the Knock football ground, the cricket pavilion and the gymnasium,
using the pavilion as the Officers' Mess, the gymnasium to house certain
other ranks, and the football ground for vehicles and stores. They
remained in occupation till the arrival of 24 General Hospital on the
27th July, 1940.
The first requisitioning for hospital purposes in the spring of 1940 had
been limited to Netherleigh, Ormiston and the School Sanatorium by a
detachment of the 15th Company R.A.M.C.; the July occupation involved
the whole of the College buildings. The main hospital was housed
in the main building, Netherleigh becoming the Officers' section and
Ormiston the nurses' residential quarters.
Till March, 1944, it remained 24 General Hospital, when it wad renamed
The Military Hospital, Campbell College. It was finally
transferred to Waringfield on 5th October, 1945.
During the five years of use as a Military Hospital approximately 34,000
patients were admitted.
During the air raid on Belfast on the 5th March, 1941, the Hospital
suffered considerable damage and casualties. From information
kindly supplied to the College since the was by the R.A.M.C. Record
Office it is now known that three large hospital huts, which had been
constructed behind the Headmaster's House and were already in use, were
destroyed by bombs, and that the North Block was set on fire.
Three other huts in course of erection were also destroyed.
Altogether, if one includes damage done by broken glass in the main
building, over 400 beds were rendered uninhabitable. The
casualties included eight patients killed and a sister badly wounded.
A Staff Sergeant was killed after carrying a private soldier to safety
before taking cover himself. At the Officers' Mess, which was also
hit, two R.A.M.C. officers and two privates were killed. All the
walking cases in the main block were marshalled in the underground
shelters which the Campbell boys had constructed in 1939, and escaped
unhurt.
The Old Campbellian Comforts Fund
The Committee appointed by the Council shortly after the outbreak of war
to organise the making of comforts for the Royal Irish Fusiliers, to
which the then O.T.C. of the School was affiliated, in its final report
stated that altogether 6,140 articles were dispatched, some direct to
France but mostly for distribution through the Headquarters in Armagh of
the Royal Irish Fusiliers Comforts Fund. Most of the comforts
consisted of socks, but there were also considerable quantities of
gloves, mittens, Campbellian Comforters, scarves, helmets mufflers and
pullovers.
The total amount of money collected by the Committee was £499 6s. 0d.,
of which £442 3s. 2d. was spent in the purchase of wool, and when the
fund was wound up there remained a surplus of £57 2s. 10d., which the
Council has sent as a contribution to the Benevolent Fund of the
Regiment. The task of purchasing the wool, distributing it amongst
the knitters, and of packing the comforts and forwarding them, was
carried out by a Committee of ladies, who were advised from time to time
by Headquarters at Armagh as to requirements. The socks had a
generous length of leg. Messages of appreciation were received
from different training centres and theatres of war, of which the one
which gave the most satisfaction was received from released prisoners of
war in Germany and Poland, who said that the socks were a Godsend when
they were made to walk 400-500 miles in retreat from the oncoming
Russians. The gloves proved to be a great success and were
described in one letter of appreciation as "more than good."
The Comforter, which came to be known as "the Campbellian Comforter,"
was designed as a specially warm and adaptable type of pullover and its
value was proved by the grateful thanks received, amongst others, from
prisoners of war, commandos, dispatch riders and transport men.
The Ladies' Committee and all who knitted the comforts and assisted in
other ways earned the most grateful thanks of Old Campbellians for their
generous and willing help throughout the six years of war.
The War Memorial Fund
An appeal was issued in January, 1947, over the names of the Chairman of
the Governors, the outgoing and incoming Presidents of the Old
Campbellian Society, and the former and present Headmasters of the
College, for funds for the provision of a War Memorial having three
objectives: the erection of a visible memorial, assistance in the
education of the sons of those who had been killed or suffered as the
result of the war, and additional funds towards the completion of the
amount required for the School Chapel, the building of which, previously
intended to be completed by 1944, the Jubilee Year of the College, had
been inevitable postponed owing to the war. Contributors were
asked to state to which of these objects they wished their donations to
be allotted.
The amount subscribed to 20th May, 1950, is £2,612 17s. 6d. The
fund still needs further donations to fulfil its objects. To this
total should be added £500 which forms part of the sum raised to
commemorate the headmastership of the previous Headmaster, earmarked at
his request to assist, if required, in the education of any children of
Old Campbellians who died on service or as the result of the war.
