Re: Sgt Bann's Battle of Britain 238 Squadron

Hi Peter,

I look after Sgt Banns grave and through this have become great friends with his brother who, i understand let you use the letters in The Battle of Britain Then and Now.
As you will be aware Sgt Banns letters indicate he saw some action over France or at least Dunkirk before joining 238 Squadron yet his service records do not agree. Sadly although 238 Squadron were in action/active area for longer than any other Hurricane unit the information and pictures are very rare.
Maurice his brother is now sadly on his last legs and i am trying to answer the many questions he has about his brother, though as he puts it "shortly i will be able to ask him myself" The Battle of Britain Then and Now/ Blitz series by the way are my Bible..picked up almost every day for one reason or another....What about another latest edition...new findings, relics, pictures.... Go on Peter.
