Les Preece RCAF

Thank you all for all your hard work in sorting out my problem. There is a Gordon Leslie Preece, as well as a Leslie Gordon Preece, both RCAF, both Bomber Command, and both living in Ontario until recently.. Gordon Leslie had 2 brothers, both of whom were RCAF and KIA. Leslie is for some reason a very name common christian name for a Preece. Yes, the ancestry string was mine. The connection with Stalag luftV was that I was encouraged to write to him there when he was a POW, but I was only 8 or 9, so possibly LuftV is a red herring. I will write back if I find news that may be of interest. Regards Brian E
