Sir Ralph A. Cochrane (Caricature portrait by Hayden) AIR MARSHAL THE HON. SIRRALPH A. COCHRANE, K.E.E.,C.B., A.F.C., is the A.O.C.-in-C, Transport Command. Recently hecommanded a Special Group in Bomber Command, and was noted for his in-sistance on meticulous accuracy in bombing. His flying history is a longone. In 1908 he entered the Royal Navy from Osborne and served withthe Grand Fleet in the first world war. Later he joined the Airship Wing ofthe R.N.A.S., and in 1919 transferred to the Royal 'Air Force. In the inter-war years he served inEgypt, Palestine, Iraq, and Aden. At Aden he commanded No. 8 (Bomber)Squadron which was responsible for the tranquillity of the Hinterland.Those who heard his lecture to the Royal United Service Institution onthe work of No. 8 Squadron are not likely to forget it, He expounded inthe clearest manner how the squadron kept the unruly tribes in order with aminimum of bloodshed to either side (if we mistake not, the casualties tothe squadron were nil) and at a mini- mum of expense to the British tax-payers. An Army expedition in that country would have been costly inboth blood and money. " Police bomb- ing " has often been stigmatised as in-human The tecords of Aden show it to be the reverse. The tribesmen are notslaughtered, only ousted from theii village Since then, Sir Ralph has passedthrough the R.A.F. Staff College and the Imperial Defence College. He hasbeen Chief of the New Zealand Air Staff. During the second world warhis services in Bomber Command were outstanding, and as A.O.C.-in-C,Transport Command, he now holds one of the most active appointments in theRoyal Air Force. Personally, he i» popular with all who enjoy his acquaint- ance. He never forgets a man.
