Nightfighter Navigator W/Cdr Douglas A Oxby DSO DFC DFM*
My dear old dad W/Cdr Douglas A Oxby DSO DFC DFM* passed away this morning. He had a remarkable life, and was amongst the highest scoring nav/rads of all Allied forces of the Second World War with 22 confirmed enemy aircraft. Dad and I had hoped to publish a book about his war years. We finished it together - but sadly he did not live to see it in print.
The funeral will be in Toronto Canada - probably next week sometime. Will post again when arrangements have been finalised. I'm going to miss my old eagle, you know. atb everyone. Richard Oxby
