W/Cdr John Edward Wymer Bowles DFC.

Hi,

Looking for any details of W/Cdr John Edward Wymer Bowles DFC 16139 RAF.

I am aware he was operational with 115 and C/O of 38 Squadron, 1939/40. Its his pre-war career I am interested in and any ref to his DFC.

TIA

Steve

His award of the DFC in Sep 40 makes no mention for any specific action. I would believe it was for his command of 38 Sqn-the F540 might confirm this
