Who was the Pilot that was later hung ?

Hi,

I have read but have forgotten the reference and know that an RAF(?) Pilot who was training in SA later came to the UK, committed a murder and was later hung.

Anyone know who I mean ?

If so do you know which Squadrons he was attached to either in the UK or SA ?

Alex

I know thew man you mean Alex. Brain failure on his name, but my father was in the same 2ndTAF hospital as him in Dec 44 - I've a feeling he was Mitchell aircrew. Infamous murderer in the late 40's...
