Hello Graham,


Re the "Malta Carrier Flight" Deserter.

(Don't get upset by the word I use because it is just that to me.
He flew off and left his fellow pilots who flew to Malta to fight the foe, who knows if he had stayed with them some RAF lives might have been saved).
From the photo of the group he stands out in that he is definately undisiplined when compared with the other pilots in the group.
So something was amiss even when the photo was taken.
At least that's what the photo say's to me.

Where did you get the info that he re enlisted and fought in the USAAF in the Med ? I would have thought the RAF would have wanted him back to answer some questions re the loss of an expensive and needed aircraft.

I have read elswhere that he was returned to the States after the event.

Thank you

Alex
