VICTOR CRADDOCK (1904-1911 : 24), Second Lieutenant in the 1/5 Battalion of the South Staffordshire Regiment, was the youngest son of Mr George Craddock of Wolverhampton.  Having entered the school at the age of 10, he remained long enough to reach the office of Prefect and to be elected Captain of Football for the first half of the 1911-12 season.  From here he went into the Civil Service, being placed first on the list for the India Office; and subsequently he was transferred to the Board of Trade and appointed Assistant Superintendent of the Mercantile Marine at Liverpool.  Early in 1916 he enlisted in the Artist Rifles O.T.C., and having gained second place in the examination for officers, received a commission in June 1917.  Sent to France in the following September, he took part in many engagements.  In March 1918, he was a victim to a gas attack, the effects of which kept him for some time out of the line.  But he returned to his duties, was wounded, and died in France on October 10th.  Here he is remembered as a boy of earnest and firm character, and it can be well understood that his Commanding Officer in writing to his father should speak highly of his capabilities as an officer.
