One of very few pilots to survive having been operational on both the first and last days of the war, he later became a distinguished administrator in the British Colonial Office. Early lifeBorn in Blackheath, London, Rose was educated at Shooters Hill School before studying science at University College London. He joined the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve in October 1938, training as a fighter pilot.[1] Military serviceRose served in the RAF in northern France in May 1940, flying a Hawker Hurricane from No 3 Squadron's Merville airbase. He shot down three German aircraft. However, on 19 May his Hurricane was so badly damaged that he had to make a forced landing. The squadron was then evacuated to England, and Rose joined No 32 Squadron based at Biggin Hill. On 25 August 1940, his aircraft was hit, and he parachuted into the English Channel but was spotted and rescued thanks to a fluorescent marker dye pack sewn into his overalls.[1] Rose then moved to Exeter, flying sorties over northern France with Czech and Polish squadrons, and in October 1942 he was awarded the DFC.[2] In December 1942, he was promoted to command No 184 squadron,[3] pioneering the operational use of rocket projectiles fired from single-engined Hurricane fighter bombers[4][5] (these 'Tankbusters'[6] were later replaced with Hawker Typhoons). The squadron was heavily involved in the build-up to the invasion of Normandy, and, after D-Day, from 27 June 1944 Rose led his squadron on ground attack missions from a forward airfield near Caen.[7][1] From November 1944 to May 1945, Rose commanded No 113 Squadron at Kwetgne in Burma,[8] providing air support to the 14th Army's advance on Rangoon. After the Japanese surrender he assisted with repatriation of recently released Allied prisoners of war in Penang.[1] Colonial serviceFollowing his release from the RAF in 1946, Rose joined the Colonial Service, serving as a district officer in the Barotseland district of Northern Rhodesia (today part of Zambia), and two terms as district commissioner in, first, Kalabo and then Kaloma. He then transferred to Lusaka for two years, before moving to the Chingola district.[1] In 1960 Rose became the second administrator of the Cayman Islands. During his four years there, he commissioned a draft company law which expanded the islands' tax haven status. He was appointed MBE in the 1954 New Year Honours and CMG in the 1963 New Year Honours.[1] In 1963 Rose he was appointed deputy governor of British Guiana (now Guyana).[1] He retired in 1979, having also, since 1975, been secretary of the Salmon and Trout Association.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite news|title=Wing Commander Jack Rose|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/military-obituaries/air-force-obituaries/6539181/Wing-Commander-Jack-Rose.html|accessdate=21 April 2017|work=Daily Telegraph|date=10 November 2009}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Rose, Jack}}2. ^{{cite web|title=London Gazette, Friday 9 October 1942|url=https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/35736/supplement/4383/data.pdf|website=The Gazette|accessdate=21 April 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Squadron C/O's|url=http://www.184squadron.com/|website=184 Squadron|accessdate=21 April 2017}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Jackson|first1=Robert|title=Churchill’s Channel War: 1939-45|date=2013|publisher=Bloomsbury|isbn=9781472801319}} 5. ^{{cite book|last1=Jacobs|first1=Peter|title=Airfields of the D-Day Invasion Air Force: 2nd Tactical Air Force in South-East England in WWII|date=2009|publisher=Pen and Sword|isbn=9781844159000|page=110}} 6. ^{{cite web|last1=Ware|first1=Jonathan|title=Hurricanes and Close Air Support|url=http://www.jonathanhware.com/hurricanes-and-close-air-support.html|website=Jonathan Ware: Military Historian|accessdate=21 April 2017}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=No 184 Squadron|url=http://www.rafweb.org/Squadrons/Sqn181-185.htm|website=Air of Authority - A History of RAF Organisation|accessdate=21 April 2017}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=S/Ldr Jack Rose DFC|url=http://113squadron.com/id28.htm|website=113 Squadron|accessdate=21 April 2017}} 11 : 1917 births|2009 deaths|Colonial Administrative Service officers|Royal Air Force officers|Royal Air Force pilots of World War II|Shot-down aviators|English aviators|Companions of the Order of St Michael and St George|Members of the Order of the British Empire|Recipients of the Distinguished Flying Cross (United Kingdom)|The Few |
