Great story on George. Many young men flew on different sides from the same country. As for the RAAF Reserve a friend of mine's father flew for the Luftwaffe and after the war emigrated to South Australia where he grew grapes and joined the Citizens Air Force unit at Mallala. Another colleague's father was a Luftwaffe bomber navigator [shot down in Italy] and he too came to Australia via Canada after the war, got citizenship and served time in the CMF in Adelaide and then Sydney.
