Distinguished Service Order (DSO) — gazetted 25 April 1944
One night in March, 1944, tflis officer piloted an aircraft detailed to attack Berlin. When nearing the target the port inner engine caught fire. Two minuteslater, the port outer engine became defective and had to be feathered. In spite of this, Flying Officer Farmiloe continued to the target. Much height and air speed were lost, whilst with its full bomb load the aircraft was difficult to control. Nevertheless, Flying Officer Farmiloe maintained a steady course and finally released his bombs over the target. The aircraft was still losing height as course was set for home. Some time later all moveable equipment, including guns and ammunition were jettisoned and the enemy coast was crossed at.
