Re: 153 Sqn Aircrew 1944
Chris,
I have King as F/Lt J E King. I also don't have a middle name for Allison, nor either service number.

Enjoy!

Frank.

Re: 153 Sqn Aircrew 1944
F540 has J E and V E King but I wonder if it is 164973 Irving Edward King. It was 136342 William Henry Allison

Re: 153 Sqn Aircrew 1944
Chris,
thanks for the Allison details.

I have downloaded ten items from the 153 Sqn ORB. This afternoon I will count occurrences of VE, JE, and IE in those records, and download more if necessary.

Enjoy!

Frank.

Possibly 758114 John Eric KING (86382). He was F/Lt by May 1944

Re: 153 Sqn Aircrew 1944
I have checked the March through May Form 541s for 153 Sqn, and all the references to King are to J E King. He and Allison were tour expired on May 17, 1944, and left the squadron. So I have to believe that he is John Eric King, as posted by Paul at 0802 on April 11.

Enjoy!

Frank.
