Hi Tod.
I agree with Adriano.
His Uniform has two utensils not seen in WWII SAAF crew.
The Wings are not SAAF but RAF, making it WWI RFC origin.
The Cap was very unpopular and seldom used by flying crew.More WWI vintage. Is there a date of issue inside the cap?
The fact that he has an 'Ouma se Bandjie' means he signed the oath in SA as a S African at the outbreak of the War.
It is very possible that he was a base OC or Instuctor at a Flying School under the Empire Training Scheme in SA during the war.He may have worn his wings but never actually flew in WWII.
Hope it helps
