F/Sgt FW Farfan 123 Sqn escape from Crete

Hi guys

F/Sgt Ferdinand Farfan, of West Indian origin, was shot down over Crete on 23 July 1943 while flying a Hurricane of 123 Squadron. This was during Operation Thesis.

I have read somewhere that he made an 'epic' escape from Crete but I don't have any details. Can anyone help? Does anyone know if there is a report of his escape lodged in the records at NA?

Cheers
Brian
