No. 200 Flight RAAF - Proudlock

Hi,

I was hoping a forum member may be able to point me in the right direction. I am researching a relative who was killed on 21 May 1945 serving with 200 Special Duties Flight RAAF.

What I have found out so far is W/O. Ralph Proudlock was killed flying an operation with the above unit in B24 Liberator (A72-177) crashing either in or off the coast of north Borneo on or about 21 May 1945.

I would like to obtain a copy of his service record and a copy of the ORB for 200 Flight. Normally these have been digitised on the NAA, ie his brother George Lackenby Proudlock has for instance but his does not seem to have been. How would I go about obtaining one.

Many thanks in advance,

Russ
