Thanks for that, Mark.
I would highly recommend Richard King’s book, “303 Squadron, Battle of Britain Diary”……the original photo, from which the image of Feric on the fin is taken, shows him, together with Urbanowicz, Henneberg and Zumbach receiving their DFCs in 1941, appears in the book.
Gripping read about a remarkable group of men.

His name is Miroslaw Feric and you can read details of his exploits on Wikipedia here; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miros%C5%82aw_Feri%C4%87

Does anyone know the story behind the officer commemorated on the fin?
