Looking for information on S/L Terrance Bullock and his Liberator I (B-24A)H-OH for a very special project!
Any info or photos would be greatly appreciated and I will certainly return the gesture from my collection.
Many thanks.........Jack

Hi Jack

I believe a book has been written about Bullock - I will check for you.

Cheers
Brian

Liberator I AM929 H/120.

Contract No. F-677.
USAAC Model. B-24A.
USAAC Serial No. 40-2368.
British Model LB.30B.
Arrived UK 20 August 1941.
Route Flown St. Hubert - Gander - Ayr.

AM929 was the last LB.30B to be delivered, the aircraft went to Boscombe Down on 2 September 1941 for bomb-sight and diving trials; she was flown to Prestwick for modifications (Coastal Command configuration) and went on charge with No.120 Squadron on 3 August 1942.
AM929 remained with 120 Squadron until 1944 when she returned to Prestwick to be modified for transport work and in March 1945 was taken on strength of No.231 squadron.
AM929 crashed on 9 April 1945 at St. Simone, near Hyacinthe, Quebec.

The book Brian mentioned is probably the following :-

Coastal Ace. The Biography of squadron Leader Terence Malcolm Bulloch DSO and Bar, DFC and Bar. by Tony Spooner, DSO, DFC.
First published in 1986 by William Kimber & Co. ISBN 0-7183-0625-2

Jack, could I ask what your project entails as Terry Bulloch is still alive and well, in fact, he lives not far from me.

Regards
Peter.
