Re: Seeking ID of FAA Hellcat pilot J.W.C. Strit

Many thanks, Frank. I suspected the name was wrong. Sturtivant, however, says that Street was flying Hellcat I JV115 for the claim on that date. Was this a shared claim?

Graham, yes, a typo on my part. I meant the "Free BMD" website.

Keith, as you may be aware, the Navy List provides info on Commonwealth naval officers as well. There is also what appears to be a fairly comprehensive list of Dutch personnel serving with both the RAF and FAA which provides full names, date and place of birth, squadrons served with, etc. I downloaded this in PDF form but, unfortunately, I didn't note the website source.

Cheers,
Tom
