Hi
Has anyone got any idea of how this pilot got his DFC?
F/O Alexander Turnbull – 27 pilot 145071
http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_…sualty=2186676
Name: TURNBULL, ALEXANDER Initials: A Nationality: United Kingdom Rank: Flight Lieutenant Regiment/Service: Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve Unit Text: 644 Sqdn. Age: 27 Date of Death: 24/04/1945 Service No: 145071 Awards: D F C Additional information: Son of William Fleming and Alice Turnbull, of Edinburgh; husband of Veronica Turnbull, of Edinburgh. Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead Grave/Memorial Reference: I. C. 5.
Does anyone know anyone that deals with the Scottish ancestry records. I know how it all works for UK/States but have never had any success for Scotland!
regards
MS
PS I know he was the pilot of Halifax NA337 now in Canada.

Hi,
The online London Gazette has the details.
Do a search for 1945, page 275.
Cheers
