Bertie Rex O´Bryen Hoare accident with a Fairey Battle

[Adriano Baumgartner]

Dear Paul McMillan,

DO HAVE NO WORDS to express MY GRATITUDE!!!!

I am a real fan of "Bertie" Hoare, DSO, DFC...and really believe he merit a FULL biography. Maybe one of you, British or Famous writers can start that work....I wished I could write about this particular airman and his full life.

There are so many forgotten RAF Heroes to write about that one could pass one life in doing so. For foreigners "sprog" writers and researchers, like me, it is almost impossible to have access to his RAF Record and Memorablia....

I heard and read, from former Mosquito airmen that flew under Hoare's Command, that he was a real "character" and a LEADER.

If one day, a biography arise, I shall be one of the first readers...Perhaps some members of the Family can think about...

BRIAN and Chris GOSS...Thanks for all the support with this thread. I have been away from this Fórum for some months, due to a new member on my crew: my son of almost 1 year of age... Am training him to be a good (air)MAN, of Peace, of Valours, etc...someething I have learned from and praised, from the very few contacts I had during those 25+ years of researches with some RAF, USAAF and LW former WW2 veterans.

SEMPER FI
