A Member of the RAF of Indeterminate Race states that there were between 300 and 500 West Indian aircrew, out of about 5000 West Indians who joined the RAF.
Lest We Forget: The Experiences of World War II Westindian Ex-Service Personnel has a number of stories from a number of black aircrews and ground crews.

Jamaica Airman by
