WIP - JACK PHILLIPS

Working on a drawing of the Marconi radio operators of the Titanic

[jbunnyx]

Harold Sydney Bride was born on 11th January, 1890 in Nunhead, South London. Bride and Phillips worked from the wireless room on the Boat Deck, sending out passengers' personal messages and receiving iceberg warnings from other ships. Harold Bride had survived but but suffered from badly frozen and crushed feet, due to the effects of the cold and the position in which he was sitting on the collapsible’s hull. Harold Sidney Bride lived out the rest of his days in Scotland, living in comparative obscurity. He died on 29th April 1956, aged 66.

Jack Phillips by ~godisdrawing

John George Jack Phillips

Fatalities among the crew were as high as two-thirds as well, and though almost none of them were famous before the voyage, some became celebrated around the world afterwards. Jack Phillips was the senior wireless operator on board, and he was the one who sent the distress and rescue signals – the code CQD, though the new SOS was replacing it, and he relayed that too. Always under pressure to send passenger messages too, he was later blamed for not passing messages from the steamship Mesaba and the SS Californian, who had both reported icebergs and ice in the path ahead of the Titanic. Both Phillips and his colleague Harold Bride worked until the power went out and then made for safety. Phillips did not survive his in the water on his upturned lifeboat, but Bride survived.
