Re: article mentioning West African Spitfire Pilot

David,

If this is the Wireless OP you are looking to trace as in the previos post, a photo of him and the rest of the crew appears on Page 55 of Halifax Special; by Bruce Robertson, from Ian Allan (Publishers) ISBN 0 7110 1920 7.

It stands to reason that if he was the Wireless Op he could have announced his arrival over enemy territory.

The above mentioned Hailfax crew from 76 Sqn flew in LW648 which was given the individual code 'A'
