Gordon Parkin 501 Sqn
I'm trying to find some reading material or information on Gordon Parkin, but can't seem to find anything. I've searched for combat reports but have been out of luck on that front. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be most helpful.
Best, Chris |

Re: Gordon Parkin 501 Sqn
Hi Chris,
according to 501 Squadron History -by David Watkins + Phil Listemann P/O Eric G Parkin (79734) was posted in to 501 from 6 OTU in May 1940 had a bad crash in Hurricane P.3349 due to engine failure at Gravesend on 31 July 1940 and severely injured. Re-joined 501 on 5 Feb 1941 but posted out in April 1941 to non-operational duties. Cheers Bruce |
