Re: Josef Frantisek - Bar to the DFM?

The documents mentioned by VoyTech are (but in czech) in book Na nebi hrdého Albionu, part 1 (Battle of Britain) by Jiří Rajlich. Ther is aldo the source, code from NA AIR 2/9326.
In other book by J. Rajlich is, that Josef Franišek was bar to DFM awarded on 28.10.1940. But I think that this medal (and other) could be awarded only to live airmen?
And when pilot was killed, the date of award was same to date of his death (Franišek was killed on 8.10.)? Or not?
