After that tour he returned to civilian life and never flew again! Now a well known aviation artist.

I have sent the 48 Sqn association secretary an email to tell him to expect a message from you.

He was in 575 squadron for a couple of years 1943-1945, after his training in Canada, tried to upload his service file but for some reason it is not showing
