Wing Commander G L B Hull DFC 114 Sqn
I wonder if anybody can help me. I am trying to research a Wing Commander G L B Hull DFC who was the Commanding Officer of 114 Squadron from April 1941.
He appears to be a pilot, and I was told he became a POW at Stalag Luft III (there is actually a photo of him with of South Afrians on the internet), however the CWGC also have a Wing Commander GEORGE LAURENCE BAZETT HULL down as a pupil pilot, and as being killed on the 17th of May 1946. I would imagine that this is the same man, but why is he down as a pupil pilot? Was this common practice after being a POW (kind of a refresher?). Also, does anybody have any idea when he became a POW, or when he was awarded his DFC. Any help or information would be great. Johnnie |
