Re: 1/Lt S I Kvam 406 Sqn

Re: 1/Lt S I Kvam 406 Sqn
It seems the middle (first?) name should be spelled Ingolf.

Re: 1/Lt S I Kvam 406 Sqn
Also, is Ingolf Kvam hyphenated as Ingolf-Kvam or not? It's a rather uncommon name with origins that are difficult to trace (at least for me).

Re: 1/Lt S I Kvam 406 Sqn
Having hopefully tracked down his son, it appears the family name is Kvam which the combat report says S I Kvam as opposed to S I-Kvam
