Roy Hussey - 72 Squadron
Does anyone have details of Sgt Roy Hussey's training in 1940-1942, prior to joining 72 Squadron?
Also I would like to find out where he was after leaving 72 in 1944, and joining 19 Squadron. |

I am interested in the Jack Hussey story as well. 13/4/44 AFDU ORB records that Acting F/Lt Hussey was posted in from 53OTU (acting rank relinquished). 17/5/44 Hussey to CGS Catfoss for PGI course. 21/6/44 Returned from CGS 15/7/44 Hussey posted as Acting F/Lt to AFDU Gunnery Instructor Duties. 8/9/44 Hussey posted to 83GSU Aston Down for flying duties. Something that I don’t understand is that after he was killed he was buried in a family grave at the small village of Coxley which is near Wells in Somerset but he is remembered on a memorial at Coalpit Heath about 30 miles away to the North of Bristol. Can you explain that? Steve |

Hi, Steve
Very late reply but.... I have found that Hussey joined 19 Squadron in October 1944 flying on bomber escorts until hius death while visiting 489 Squadron at Dallachy. I still have no idea where he trained in 1941-2 but am still searching ;-) |
