Frank,

Check out my previous post regarding the service numbers for Bragard, Moureau and Van Molkot.

Also from Johnnie Houlton's book Spitfire Strikes (page 192):

"It was about this time that 349 (Belgian) Squadron was short of experienced sub-section leaders, and Doug Clark (sic) was seconded from 485 Squadron to fly with the Belgians. He had an enjoyable short tour, sharing the destruction of a FW 190; and the Belgian Command marked their appreciation of his efforts by awarding him the Belgian Croix de Guerre."

Regards,
Tom

Re 349 Sqn 1944
My adoptive Father, Alfred 'Freddy' Moureau, was Squadron leader for 349 Belgian Squadron....he sadly passed away in 2012 (today would of been his 98th birthday).
His twin brother (who served alongside him in 349 Squadron), is Joseph Moureau.
I hope this helps & I will try to answer any further queries if I can although my knowledge is limited.
