193 Squadron CO
 
Hi,

Anyone know the full name of Sqn Ldr D G Ross, who was posted to command 193 Squadron in February 1944?

Hi Alex,
One of my other research areas ( 193Sq ).
W/C Baker was posted to harrowbeer as wing commander. ( 193 & 266 ) in Jan 44.
Apparently from memories I was told ..
Shortly after there were a few 'postings'
193Sq CO left on the 10th Feb, Ross took over on 11th or 12th of Feb 44, ( his first mention in the ORB is the 12th ).
Cheers
Jerry

Hi Tony, Jerry

Thanks for the details. I didn't know he was a casualty, hence my reason for not checking the CWGC first.

Tony,

I plead ignorance. What is the CWGC site?

Hi Tom,

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) is an organisation that commemorates all the Commonwealth forces that gave their lives in the two world wars.
