Hello, good to stumble across this very interesting forum! I am hoping to get in touch with the RCAF in relation to supposed “captured German documents” they hold which concern the fate of my grandfather’s Lancaster which was lost “without trace” over Berlin in December 1943. Needless to say the Air Ministry here know nothing about these documents and I was wondering if anyone could help point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Stuart

RCAF contact details?
Thanks Peter, I will indeed try there if I have no luck…. The problem is, I don’t know who to try and contact in Canada. I am not Canadian and neither was my grandfather, but two of his crew (including the pilot, F/Lt James Munro) were and the letter I have which informed me of the existance of the “captured German documents” was from the RCAF to Jimmy Munro’s mother! Basically the RCAF seem to know what happened to my grandfather whilst the RAF don’t!
Any help with who to contact at the RCAF would be very much appreciated!
