Best of the New Year to the Forum,
I have a pilot's licence that belonged to I believe must have flown with KG26 but I can't find him listed in the book Torpedos Los! I have a summary of his licence below. Any information on what I have listed would be appreciated.
How can field post numbers help? Can they be very useful to pinpoint this fellow's unit? This is my first post so please e-mail a copy of your reply to
lbohn@shaw.ca so I don't miss the post. :-)
Best regards,
Lorne
