On May 23 1916, Lt (later MRAF) John Slessor of 17 Sqn was in action in the Sudan and was wounded in the thigh. He managed to return to base and the offending bullet was recovered. It is mounted on a small wooden base marked with his initials (JCS), place, date and aircraft number. It also bears the initials WFF. Does anyone know what or to whom this refers?
