Flt Sergeant R K Ken Parry 131 Squadron

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if Ken Parry of 131 squadron survived the war.
I recently bought a combat report relating to him (3rd August 1943) and would like to know more about him.
Many thanks in advance
Gerry

There doesn't appear to be an entry for him at CWGC website, so he must have survived. He receives a brief mention in this interesting article by Andrew Thomas (penultimate paragraph):

He also has an entry in 'Those Other Eagles' by Christopher Shores.

Cheers,
Bruce
