I'm doing some verification research for the International Bomber Command Centre to establish the number of different nationalities the served with that august formation. Obviously we are chasing the usual repositories of such information (Air Historical Branch etc), but, frequently, we find that word of mouth information provides a verifiable lead.

Therefore, do any of the esteemed readership have any potentially verifiable sources of any persons of Greek nationality that served with Bomber Command, please? Answers here or via PM, if you would be so good; thanks in advance.

Hope the mods don't mind if I repeat this request in the Military section.
