Re: Jo Kmiejic- RAF Career WW2 to circa 1980

Larry

Do you have log books of your father which do contain entries of Kmiecik?
He indeed flew Mustangs for the last few missions of No 303 Sqn - they converted only in April 1945. I think he was on a Berchtesgaden raid. He flew Lancasters during the filming of Dambusters as well.

Joe was the last active RAF pilot operational in WWII. There is a series of photos next to a Spitfire taken on Joe's retirement, but as far as I know, he did not fly it. I would love to have it confirmed otherwise.
