Lieutenant-Colonel Bradford''s Battalion was in support. A leading Battalion having suffered very severe casualties, and the Commander wounded, its flank became dangerously exposed at close quarters to the enemy. Raked by machine-gun fire, the situation of the Battalion was critical. At the request of the wounded Commander, Lieutenant-Colonel Bradford asked permission to command the exposed Battalion in addition to his own. Permission granted, he at once proceeded to the foremost lines. By his fearless energy under fire of all description, and his skilful leadership of the two Battalions, regardless of all danger, he succeeded in rallying the attack, captured and defended the objective, and so secured the flank."

He was the brother of Lieutenant-Commander George Nicholson Bradford, VC: they were the only brothers to win the VC in World War I.

He was educated at Epsom College, and came with an entrance scholarship to U.C.L. in 1866. he gained three gold medals (Compar. Anat., Forensic med., Clinical med.) and two silver medals (Anat. and Physiol., Practical Physiol.). He took his M.R.C.S. in 1870; 1st Class Hons. in M.B. in 1871; and M.D. in 1872. He took great interest in all the life of the College and was a keen athlete, played in the College Football XV, and rowed in the College boat. He was president of the College Medical Society in 1897-70. Throughout the Franco-German War of 1870-71 Carter served with an English Ambulance in France. He had a resident post for a time at U.C.H. after brief service in the general Hospital at Wolverhampton. He began his long connection with Birmingham on his appointment as pathologist to the General Hospital. For thirty years (1876-1906) he was physician at Queen's Hospital, Birmingham, and held numerous other medical and administrative appointments in connection with the Hospitals and Institutes of the neighbourhood. in 1878 he was appointed Professor of Physiology, in 1892 Professor of Therapeutics, and in 1897 Professor of Medicine at Birmingham, and was actively concerned with the constitution of the University there. He undertook many civic duties, and was one of the founders of the Birmingham Athletic Institute; he was for many years on the Executive of the Christian Social Union. At various times he was examiner in medicine at Aberdeen, Glasgow and London. In 1891 he was elected F.R.C.P. He was an active member of the british Medical Association, and president of the Birmingham Branch 1895-6. He also wrote many papers and text-books on "Physical Exercises" and "Elements of Medicine" - the latter book has already run through eleven editions. Carter retired from his professorship and from practice in 1913, but went out to France with the Red Cross early in 1915. On November 20th, 1915, he was gazetted Major in the R.A.M.C., and was engaged in the transport of the medical cases in the Mediterranean. He was appointed consulting physician to the "Aquitania". Later he was consulting physician and second in command of the R.A.M.C. on the "Britannic," leaving her (a short time before she was sunk) to become consulting physician to the Southern Command on Salsibury Plain, where he specialized in cerebro-spinal meningitis. He was preparing a report on that subject when he was taken ill. He had been promoted Lieut.-Colonel on October 1st, 1916. He was twice mentioned in communiqués by the Secretary of State for War, February 24th, 1917, and September 18th, 1917. He was twice married. His first wife, Constance (Goode), died in 1886, her son Ronald, born in 1886, died in 1917.

Family details	Son of Dr. Charles Herbert and Fanny Fazan, of Wadhurst, later of "Boughton", 1, Amherst Rd., Bexhill-on-Sea, Sussex. Brother of Eric Alfred Charles Fazan (1900).
Biography	Extract from The Bond of Sacrifice Volume 2 (Jan to Jun 1915) 2nd LIEUTENANT ROY FAZAN, 5th 9CINQUE PORTS) BATTN. (TERRIT.) ROYAL SUSSEX REGIMENT, was killed in action during the attack on Richebourg on Sunday, 9th May, 1915. He was the youngest son of Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Fazan, of Belmont, Wadhurst, Sussex, where he was born on the 19th August, 1891. He was educated at Rose Hill School, and subsequently at Epsom College, where he gained an educational scholarship given by the Haberdashers’ Company. He soon commenced to take an interest in military subjects, and joined the O.T.C., which had been formed at the College, and he afterwards served in the London University Corps. Leaving Epsom he entered the Middlesex Hospital Medical School in September, 1909, and when war broke out he was still there pursuing his studies, which would have shortly been completed. At the Hospital he filled many positions, and on the outbreak of war he was acting as P.M. Clerk and In-patients’ Clerk to Dr. Wynter. At the Medical School he was one of the leading students and became Secretary of the Students’ Concert Committee, and by his energy and interest succeeded in benefiting the Middlesex Hospital Cancer Charity to the extent of nearly £200. For these services he was appointed an Honorary Life Governor of the Hospital, and he afterwards became a Liveryman of the Haberdashers’ Company and a Freeman of the City of London. 2nd Lieutenant Fazan was very fond of games, an excellent cricket and football player, and a keen sportsman. He was in the Hospital Cricket team, Captain of the Wadhurst Colts and Vice-Captain of the Wadhurst Cricket Club. He also took an active interest in Rugby football, and was in the Hospital XV. He was also a member of the Tonbridge Club and of Rosslyn Park. After leaving Epsom College he first joined the Artists’ Rifles, and was afterwards given a commission, as 2nd Lieutenant, in the 5th Royal Sussex Regiment in May, 1914, and, being in the Special Reserve Section, he was called up for duty during the precautionary period before the declaration of war. He afterwards did duty with his battalion at Dover and at the Tower of London, and left for France in February, 1915, where his corps was attached to the 2nd Brigade, 1st Division, and did considerable trench work. On the 9th May, the day he was killed, his battalion was attacking with the 2nd of the Royal Sussex, and, being the second senior officer of his company, he was gallantly leading his men towards the German line in the face of a heavy shrapnel and machine-gun fire when he was struck down. His death was a great loss to his battalion and comrades, as he was of a most happy nature, and will long be remembered by his friends for his cheery and humorous disposition. He is buried near Richebourg l’Avoué.

Biography	Second Lieutenant, 6th Battalion, London Regiment (City of London Rifles). Died 15th September 1916, aged 18. Born in North Finchley, London. Son of Dr. Robert H. and Debra French, of Moss Bank, Nether Street, North Finchley, London. They had at least three children: Robert Douglas French (b. 1898) Edna Mildred French (b. 1900) Alistair Reginald French (b. 1904) Educated at Epsom College (1909-1915). Student at London hospital. Gazetted from the University of London O.T.C. on 30th November 1915. Went to France on 27th May 1916. Killed by machine gun fire. The Times 29th November 1916 SECOND LIEUTENANT R. DOUGLAS FRENCH, London Regiment, who was killed on September 15, was the eldest son of Dr and Mrs French, of Moss Bank, North Finchley, and was 18 years of age. He was educated at Epsom College, and a first-year student at the London Hospital. He was in the O.T.C., London University, and in October 1915, got his commission in the London Regiment, and went out to the front last May. His Colonel writes:- "I can assure you of my great regret, for your son was a promising young soldier, and the battalion could ill spare him. And he fell in a most gallant assault in the German lines." The O.C. of his company wrote:- "He died bravely leading his men, by whom he was much admired, which was shown by the fact that two young men went through grave risks, and even lost their lives in trying to save him. He was indeed a brave fellow, and we shall all miss him...........His men write of him he was a true English gentleman, a great lover of England and duty, always thinking of others' happiness, and to be anywhere near him was to know real happiness - a baby in years, but a man in heart and purpose. And he died a 'real little hero'" Through the good work of the Red Cross, Dr French has been able to interview some of the men who were present on the day of the battle, and who are now wounded and in hospital. And they told him that Lieutenant French was wounded, but as he was the only officer of the company left to carry on he had his wounds dressed, and said, "Boys, you all have mothers, and we must think of the women and children of England, and go on and win. So come on boys, let's turn them out." While the objective was being taken Lieutenant French was shot dead by machine-gun fire. [Source: The Cast-iron sixth]
