Re: The Riddle brothers in 601 Squadron

Hej Stig,

I found the same questions when reading Shores/Foreman, which is why I asked if anyone had the ORBs.
They are slightly outside my "normal" interests and thus I didn't want to spend any money on them at the NA (they receive enough as it is...) ;-)

Best wishes/Håkan

No worries Håkan

Wasn't sure what you had or not.
My own opinion is that Shores is more reliable than Foreman.
If nothing else shows up I would suggest to use Shores for the details of H J Riddle and Foreman for his brother.

That way you will have one riddle less....

Cheers
Stig

Re: The Riddle brothers in 601 Squadron

Of interest, I have a letter from C J Riddle dated 1982 and he believes his brother never flew operationally again after being shot down in May 1940 but my belief is H J he did get the 110 on 11 Jul 40. Incidentally, C J Riddle was A Flt, H J Riddle B Flt
