F/Lt G.A. Welch 622 Sqdn KIA
 

Hi,

Looking for any information for F/Lt G.A. Welch KIA whilst serving on 622 Sqdn on 15/2/44.

Unusually he served on 218 Sqdn from 23/6/43 completing Ops and then he was posted to 214 Sqdn on 16/8/43 until he joined 622 Sqdn on 5/11/43 until he was killed on 15/3/44.

I have the list of opes he completed on 218 & 622, does anybody have the ORB's for 214 Sqdn and could let me know if he flew operations with this squadron

Thanks in advance!
