The Zeebrugge
Memorial is a small stone panel set in the wall of the

Day 1918. Born Torquay 1886. 2 Beaumont Terrrace, Malvern Rd,
Dover Kent, 1901, son of Arthur and Adelaide (Retired Lieut.
Col. In army)
Citation: An
extract from the "London Gazette," dated 14th March, 1919,
records the following:-" For most conspicuous gallantry at
Zeebrugge on the night of the 22nd-23rd April, 1918. This
officer was in immediate command of the Naval Storming Parties
embarked in 'Vindictive'. Immediately before coming alongside
the Mole Lieut.-Commander Harrison was struck on the head by a
fragment of a shell which broke his jaw and knocked him
senseless. Recovering consciousness he proceeded on to the Mole
and took over command of his party, who were attacking the
seaward end of the Mole. The silencing of the guns on the Mole
head was of the first importance, and though in a position fully
exposed to the enemy's machine-gun fire Lieut.-Commander
Harrison gathered his men together and led them to the attack.
He was killed at the head of his men, all of whom were either
killed or wounded. Lieut.-Commander Harrison, though already
severely wounded and undoubtedly in great pain, displayed
indomitable resolution and courage of the highest order in
pressing his attack, knowing as he did that any delay in
silencing the guns might jeopardise the main object of the
expedition, i.e., the blocking of the Zeebrugge-Bruges Canal.
