Events Page.
From about May 2001 I assisted in running
the Website for my old Squadron. During WW2 I served with 97 Squadron
Bomber Command. I took over the Website in 2003 and continued
to do so up to June 2006 when I decided to resign, although I’m
still a member of the Squadron Association. Since then I have
as you can see from this website,confined myself to writing Crime
Novels.
In recent years the interest in Ancestry has
become quite popular with many families and it is in this subject
I feel I may be able to be of some assistance.
I have a complete list of all AirCrew losses
associated with Bomber Command for the years 1939 to May 1945.
In that period we lost over Fifty Five Thousand Aircrew members
who never returned, and Bomber Command still has no memorial honouring
these brave young men whom I was privileged to serve alongside
with. If you know of any relative in your family who lost their
lives as an Aircrew member during those years its possible I can
trace what happened to them and who they flew with. Their is NO
CHARGE involved. If I can trace them I will be very pleased to
do so. What I would need is
Their Name---TheirRank { if known } When they
went missing. Date as near as possible,but I must have the year.Also
it would help if you know which Squadron they were with. Let me
have what details you can, then
Just email me at.

This invitation is open to anyone and
is in no way connected to purchasing or having to show any interest
in my Books. I’mm ex RAF Bomber Command 97 Squadron and
it’s my way of still being in contact with old friends I
served with and hopefully to help others trace what happened to
some of their relatives.
