Re: Form 543 - No. 2 R.C. Cardington

Strangely the RAF did use Swordfish aircraft on night ops over the North Sea and 119 Sqn in particular used them from Jan 1945. However I think if your granddad did Air Gunner training his Swordfish flights would have been done with an Air Gunners School. If he never became an Air Gunner it may be that he either decided it was not for him, or he got air sickness or perhaps just a suggestion that he might be suitable!
