Re: Chris Le Roux - Hurricane pilot?
The 7 Pilots joining 73 Sq. on 21 May were :-
F/Lt.C.W.K.Nicholls, F/O. H.B.Bell-Syer. both from Boscombe Down
P/O. I.D.Hawken and P/O. P.E.G.Carter. both from 605 Sq.
Sgt. W.Millner from AACU, and Sgt. G.W.Garton and Sgt. R.Plenderleith from
43 Sq.
This from Don Minterne's highly detailed history of 73 Sq (Vol 1) pp159.
No mention of Le Roux at all, possibly his posting was cancelled as he was not as experienced as were the above 7.
