Re: Lt.-Cmdr Allen Burgham, No. 835 Squadron
Sorry Frank,
I replied earlier but it disappeared. my information comes from Ray Sturtivants "Fleet Air Arm Aircraft 1939-1945" (Grumman Wildcat fm2/Wildcat VI) and Barringers "Alone in a wide, wide sea". Along with "Bring back my Stringbag" by John Godfrey and half a dozen others dealing with the Russian convoys.
Good luck with your search. I would be interested if there was a definitive record of claims. It seems to differ with every work I have read.
regards
Keith
