Independant researcher in the UK

Could anyone recommend an independent researcher in the UK to search the files at the NA at Kew for the record of the recommendation for the British DFC for an american pilot who was never in the RCAF or the RAF ?
Thanks,
Ben

Mike,

you might want to read the earlier thread on this pilot so you don't have to re-invent the wheel.

and over on the rafcommands website:
http://www.rafcommands.com/forum/sho...to-U.-S.-pilot

This gentleman advertised here before on this forum:

I've not used him but you can contact him if you like if he is still active
