Sgt Pilot Eric Bann

When I discovered this mans grave several years ago, I resolved to find out more about him. Little did I know that I was living close to his childhood school and home. More information "popped" up in the form of Matthew Parkers book 'The Battle of Britain July - October 1940' which proved very informative. It's been interesting keeping tabs on the various threads about Sgt Banns last flight but I've found it frustrating to learn that 238 Squadron just happens to be such an unphotographed unit. I wonder if this was because it was reformed during the battle and people had more pressing matters to attend to!

Anyway, thanks to all for filling in some of the gaps about this man as it has been extremely interesting.

Paul.
