Re: F/L J.R.B. Firth RAF

Paul, I can’t find anything on a Canadian Connection either. Found lots of information on his birth in England etc, but nothing that shows a connection. Also search to see if he did any flight training in Canada and ‘no joy’ If you want the birth info and other info I found, let me know and I’ll pos...

Re: Sgt Edward James Stansfield 1057672 RAF

Paul, looking for you. So far all I could find is information on a ship when returning to Canada from England. I can’t confirm yet if this is the right man yet

Re: F/S M.H. Buckley R66343, 401 Sqn. Malta?

Looked up the Records for 603 Squadron and they indicate the Squadron was ‘on route’ and then in Egypt and Cyprus during the time period Apr 1942 to Dec 1942. I don’t see any record of Malta in the Squadron Operations Record Books??

Re: F/S M.H. Buckley R66343, 401 Sqn. Malta?

So far, all the info I could find. You may have some of this, but thought I would post all info of relevance All of the records indicate in was born in the US (making him a US citizen)……but grew up in Canada. I didn’t find any ‘naturalization’ papers, but he could have been a naturalized Canada and ...

Re: Casualty company

Hey guys, I have another question about aservice form entriy. The entry tells me that my great uncle was posted to Casualty company on January 28th 1919. This would have been after he was back in Canada. The form shows him embarking on the 25th of January 1919 from the troop Aquatania. My question ...

More digging to be carried out I think, but once agin thanks for the articles. Daz I agree Daz, one of ...
