Re: Confusion re: Herbert Inglesby of 33 Sqn.
Hi Alex,
The possiblity of the first name being 'George' is interesting but also problematic. The pilot who was MIA/KIA on 24 June 42 is listed as P/O H. Inglesby in Med. Air War, V.2 and as Lt. Herbert Inglesby in CWGC. Both sources show him in 33 Sqn.
Like you, I concidered the possiblity of Inglesby having transferred to the SAAF sometime before his death but still being on the squadron books as RAF at the time of his death. Another possiblilty, now, is two different pilots with the 1941 Inglesby being 'George.'
Perhaps Frank Olynyk can shed further light. Frank?
Cheers,
Tom
