Battle lost 9/9/40

Hi guys

On 9 September 1940, a Battle of 103 Squadron was lost. One of the crew was from the FAA, Sub Lt L.A de Sandoval Sievier. What nationality was he? His name doesn't appear in the CWGC register,

PS: I have a note that 56 or 58 FAA pilots were seconded to the RAF in June 1940. Most of these went to Fighter Command, others to Coastal Command (and Bomber Command?) Also FAA observers were loaned to CC and BC. Has anyone precise figures?

Cheers
Brian
