Hi all,

I have a small concern that this man could have flown operationally during the Battle of Britain, but for whatever reason he wasn't and still isn't recognised as one of the few.
The reason for my concern is two fold:

1. I have a photograph of him with a 310 Hurricane taken at Duxford in late October early November 1940.

2. I was surprised to see that the national archives has a combat report for him during the period of the Battle (10/071040 - 31/10/1940)

Would he have had reason to fill in a combat report if he wasn't in fact flying operationally?

Incidently, the archives have him listed as P/O Kimlicka J.

I hope one of you can our some light on this, I would hate for him to have denied his rightful place amongst those that flew during the Battle.

Best wishes
Gerry
