** The citation read: "His first task was to get his ship into reliable running order… a series of serious mechanical breakdowns had undermined the morale of her crew…under Lt Marshall’s direction the ship rapidly became operational. After accompanying two operations as an observer…Lt Marshall embarked on a series of 12 faultlessly executed expeditions. Four of these operations were to parts of the North French coast not previously visited; Lt Marshall displayed outstanding skill in locating accurately these new pinpoints, entering narrow rock strewn channels without hesitation. On one occasion he pressed on and completed an operation of great importance in a North-Easterly gale gusting to force 8, under conditions which would have made a less determined officer give up long before reaching the French coast. MGB 503 embarked 100 Allied airmen from a beach in enemy occupied France between January and March 1944. The procedure involved lying at anchor within a mile of enemy watchposts for between two and four hours at a time. The standard of efficiency to which Lt Marshall had trained his surf boats’ crews needs no emphasis in view of these figures. By skilful tactics and cool and correct judgment, Lt Marshall avoided detection by enemy sea patrols and convoys indicated by radar and visually on a number of occasions. His high qualities of leadership and seamanship are worthy of recognition."

Navy, where he served as Sub-Lieutenant until resigning his Commission in 1922.
Later that year he was commissioned into the Royal Warwickshire Regiment as 2nd
Lieutenant, resigning his commission there in September 1926, due to Bankruptcy
proceedings due to a failed business venture. At the outbreak of the Second War,
Bridgeman was commissioned as Temporary Lieutenant in the Royal Naval Volunteer
Reserve, on the 16th November 1939. From the 10th January 1940, he served at
