Jelle:
I acquired a paperback copy of Don Bennett's "Pathfinder" for my 10 Sqn work and I don't see a Moore mentioned by name in any of the few photos in it. However, a Flt Lt V S Moore is listed in an annex as CO of 1409 (Met) flight from 28 November 1943 - a brief appointment as another chap took over on 13 January 1944. 1409 flew Mosquitoes.

And if the names, above, of the VC holders are correct, none were named on the 10 Sqn aircraft. The names chosen in 1968 were from a list of VCs who had died in action.

Seasons greetings, Ian.
