Dear All,
I have a question about the Australian ace Peter Turnbull. 'The pilots collected Gloster Gauntlets from 102 MU at Abu Sueir the same day and proceed to 208 Squadron the following day while the ground crew followed in a Bombay. Flying Officer Turnbull was evacuated to hospital from the detached flight with 208 Squadron on 6 October. He was replaced by Flight Lieutenant Gordon Steege. Turnbull re-joined the unit at Helwan on 14 October.' http://surfcity.kund.dalnet.se/commo...h_turnbull.htm Did he get wounded? (By the way, what was a detached flight? I haven't been able to find an adequate explanation.) Thank you in advance. :-) |
