He was again placed in command of Inflexible on 28 August, 1914[9] until 13 April, 1915.[10]

Great War

Phillimore was appointed a Naval Aide-de-Camp to King George V on 24 October, 1914, vice Ernest F. A. Gaunt.[11]

Phillimore commanded the battlecruiser H.M.S. Inflexible at the Battle of the Falklands.

Phillimore continued to serve as Admiral Commanding Aircraft, in Furious, until striking his flag on 15 June, 1919. On the occasion of the King's birthday he was appointed an Additional Member of the Second Class, or Knight Commander, in the Military Division of the Order of the Bath (K.C.B.) on 3 June, 1919.[15]

Rear-Admiral's Flag

Tony Lovell has Phillimore's Rear-Admiral's flag. It is silk, mildly discoloured, and 13 feet in length. Sadly, it is also torn, as it was shipped to him with a framed track chart Phillimore had drawn of the Battle of the Falklands, and the glass had shattered in shipment. Worse yet, the track chart was badly mildewed and worthless.
