Re: Sgt G Hawkins - 18 Sqn RAF

There was a Sgt Gordon Hawkins of 107 Sqdn shot down 10/7/1940 and killed 19/4/45 when the PoW column was strafed by Mustangs....
Also an EDWARD George Hawkins killed 2/5/44 on board Stirling EF259 of 218 Sqdn.
Hopefully your chap survived.

Thanks for the reply,

Unfortunately Sgt George Hawkins was K.I.A. in May 1940, his DFM would have been awarded for actions between September 1939 and February 1940.

Regards,

Ian
