Christen Name of F/L Cairn - 236 Sqn Oct 1941

Flight Lieutenant Cairn takes over one of the flights on 21 October 1941 could anyone help me with the christen name, as I can't link any on the London Gazette site to the Cairns on 236 Sqdn.

RAF Form 540 also has the spelling as Cairnes with an 'e'

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Andy Bird

Andy,

Looking at the Air Force List in conjunction with the London Gazette I find as a possible candidate:

Anthony Quentin Cairns (40079) who had been promoted to Flt. Lt. on 12 Feb. 1941.
