Shephard attended Eton College Eton 1898 1903 and Royal Military Academy Sandhurst Sandhurst . He belonged to the Royal Cruising Club, where his skills as a yachtsman would come in handy later in life. He was gazetted Second Lieutenant to a Regular Army battalion of the Royal Fusiliers on 28 January 1905. He transferred to the Royal Flying Corps RFC in 1912, the year of its formation. Citation needed date March 2011 However, in July 1914, he used his skills as a yachtsman for a quite different purpose, to surreptitiously assist his friend Robert Erskine Childers Erskine Childers who was executed by the Free State government in 1922 during the Irish Civil War in landing a consignment of weaponry at Howth aboard Childers yacht, Asgard yacht The Asgard , on behalf of the Irish Volunteers , an action which, had it become known, would have resulted in, at a minimum, the termination of Shephard s military career, if not far more drastic punishment i.e. imprisonment . His covert operations came to an abrupt halt when he and a companion were briefly detained by the German authorities at Emden , after they were seen taking photographs in a sensitive area. ref name bio http genealogy.links.org links cgi readged? home ben camilla genealogy current c shephard97024 2 2 0 1 0 Gordon Strachey Shephard extensive biodata ref On 22 August ...
