Re: D V Couta RAF Kenley 1938
Wow,
Thank you both for that information. I'm gutted that I missed the medals up for sale. I wonder which squadron he was with in December 38 whilst stationed at Kenley. Am I correct in thinking that it must have been a fighter squadron (46 or 3)? Many thanks once again Gerry |

He might not have been on a sqn but could have been on station strength
