Gentlemen, I am very pleased and humbled by your interest in my father's medals and RAF experience during WW2. As already discussed after the end of WW2, my father flew York aircraft from Wunsdorf to Berlin during the Berlin Airlift, often flying more than 2 missions a day. In total he flew 221 sorties into Berlin. After that he joined Transport Command, flying Hastings all over the world. As young children, my sister & I called him 'the man in the suitcase' as we often only saw him for a few hours before he flew off again!
He finally completed his flying career with 42 Squadron RAF St. Mawgan with Coastal Command, although he flew a few flights in Nimrods before he finally retired.
I look forward to any other information etc...that my father's medals have generated & yes, I will ensure that I insure them!
