A page from the log Book of RAF Sgt. Ben Trew – Bomb Aimer on various aircraft

His service number was:1322754

He flew in Sterlings, Blenheim’s, Wellingtons and Lancasters, served two tours. A friend of mine scanned his logbook and sent the scans to me.

Here’s one page from the logbook, not sure if these are of interest to anyone but it fascinates me? Cheers, MP

Log books are always of interest. It’s surprising how much difference there is between different people’s entries. My father’s log book just gives the target and what they dropped on it. I acquired another log book of someone on the same squadron at the same time and he wrote almost half a page in some cases, so now I know more about my Father’s service.

I’ve a number of other log books, one of the things I do is see how many of the aircraft are still around. One has Spitfires AB910 and AR614 on adjacent pages.
