ID of F/L H. Hopkinson 229 Sqn. 1943
This officer was serving in 229 Sqn. in July 1943 and made a claim for a Bf 109 damaged on 2 July (Cull, Spitfires Over Sicily). S/L Harry Hopkinson (118043) was CO of 253 Sqn. from Jan. to May 1944 and was awarded the DSO for his service in this capacity. Can anyone confirm that these are the same person?

Thanks,
Tom
