dgibson150 Posted 21 February , 2016 Share Posted 21 February , 2016 Just in case there is additional information (a biography would be great). I wondered LF if you could look up Edward Barnard Hankey in your DSO awards books. I think the award was in 1917 in connection with 3rd Ypres, Kind regards David Edit Sorry I have posted this as a separate thread. It should have been on the DSO recipients thread.

dgibson150 Posted 22 February , 2016 Author Share Posted 22 February , 2016 Thanks Barry for the interest. I had already found the tremendous Worcestershire Regiment web site. I was hoping for another picture of Lt Colonel Hankey from the DSO Book, but it was not to be. Kind regards David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrannyB Posted 18 April , 2023 Share Posted 18 April , 2023 Hello David I have just seen this post from a few years ago. E.B. Hankey was my grandfather and I am wondering what your interest in him is? Kind regards Julia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgibson150 Posted 9 May , 2023 Author Share Posted 9 May , 2023 Apologies for taking so long to respond. My interest in EB Hankey was to see if he was the senior officer in a group photograph of 9th Tank Battalion taken some time in 1919. I subsequently found out that the person I was trying to identify was Hugh Kennedy Woods, who commanded the 9th Tank Battalion from its formation in November 1916 until October 1918.
