Re: Major Alexander James Wright RM 805/RNFS

Cheers mate,

Another wee bit of information, Bill Simpson (his wingman on both victories in 1941) claimed two kills flying a Seafire at Salerno in 1943.

"The commanding officer of 897 Squadron , leading a patrol of four Seafires, spotted a flight of Bf109s at 12,000ft. Lt Cdr W.C. Simpson shot down two of the German aircraft while his wingman damaged a third."

best regards

Keith
