Thanks for the help. I saw the website earlier but they have no e-mail for these enquiries it seems.

I don’t want to give out his name or his nationality as he knows nothing of this at all, but he served in England from 41 to the end of the war. He flew Hurricanes attacking shipping (I think he once mistook a French airfield for a British one and almost landed there…or landed and took off again). Then he flew Spitfire IIa’s, V’s and IX’s. Wounded during the Dieppe raid, but back on missions quite shortly after it. He became squadron leader before going on rest in early 43. Back in service, he joined 2nd TAF into Europe. A real character.
