Adrian Philip Goldsmith

Hi All,

I'm researching Australian-born ace Adrian Philip Goldsmith. He served with several fighter squadrons in the RAF and additionally with the 452 squadron of the RAAF. I'm trying to find a list of his combat victories, but so far have come up empty. Anybody know anything on this particular ace.

Thanks,
Flakmagnet

Suggest you get hold of a copy of Aces High which lists all of his 16 plus 1 shared destroyed, 2 probable and 7 damaged with 242, 126 and 452 Sqns

Hi

His time at Malta is covered in Spitfires over Malta by Cull and Galea, published by Grub Street.

Cheers

Brian
