Re: FAA total

I have claims for Albacores on July 30, 1941 at Kirkenes as follows, all of 827 Sqn:

1 Me 110 probable and one Ju 87 damaged, by Lt John Curwen Reid + LtCdr James Andrew Stewart-Moore (obs) + PO Herbert John Lambert (gunner) in "4A" = N4330

One Ju 87 destroyed by Lt John Nigel Ball + Lt Bernard James Prendergast (obs) + PO A E Sweet (gunner) in "4K" = N4307

One Me 109 probable by SubLt Richard Bruce Park + SubLt Oswald Gordon Weston Hutchinson + L/Air Ernest Percival Fabien (gunner) in "4P" (Sturtivant in FAA Aircraft says 4L = N4348)

The only other Albacore claim I have is for an unknown crew on June 21, 1940 for a Me 109 damaged at Willemsoord Harbour by 826 Sqn. I think I spotted something on this in FAA Aircraft.

Does anyone have Sweet's full name? And should the officers be Lt(A) and LtCdr(A) and SubLt(A) ?

Enjoy!

Frank.
