Fleet Air Arm personnel in Bomber Command WWII
Hello all.
My grandfather (WWII FAA Observer - but never flew on operations as the war finished before he went frontline) died a while back and while my old man and myself were clearing out his attic we found his diary.
He says that when training in Trinidad one of the observers and one of the pilots had both survived tours on Lancasters with Bomber Command.
I can find details of 6 Observers being seconded to lancasters, including Lieutenant-Commander Edgar Lee of channel dash fame, of which 3 were killed. But nothing about FAA Pilots flying for Bomber Command.
Can anyone shed light on this?
