Flt Lt Edward Thomas Fisher

Hi Ian,

I note the thread to all this is rather old so don't hold much hope of a reply! Anyway, my Dad was Flt Lt Edward Thomas Fisher, a navigator. Sadly he passed away in 2011 aged 91. For posterity I'm compiling a record of his career in the RAF and in the main my reference material is his log books and a few photo's of his time in the RAF. I can only assume he knew your Dad very well for his last tour of duty prior to his retirement in 1968 was at the MOTU at RAF St Mawgan in 1967. In fact his last operational flight was in a Shackleton MkI T4 on 6 April 1967 which your Dad was the pilot. As a family we lived at 20 Spitfire Row, St Eval. I appreciate it's a long shot but I'd be really grateful for any photo's you, or any readers, may have of that time and of them together. I'd also be grateful for a picture of your Dad in his days in the RAF so I could put it into my "hall of fame". Clearly anything else you can assist with would be appreciated.

Fingers Crossed
