Re: Unknown RAF pilot?

W/O Dygryn-Ligoticky t/o at 0105am from Tangmere to Intruder action over Evreux-Fauville, in Z3183.
The revolver should be Astra, type 1915 with names Doris, Noel & Paddy and RAF badge. Doris was the name of his WAAF wife.
Remains were buried at Westwell on 14/8/42. The body was unidentified due to condition because three (sic) months in the sea. But the medals and revolver helped to identification.
Victories: 6-0-1
