"Dudley Henriques" Ed;
I'm not sure where you want to go in the war as it relates to the
Canadians,
but for the BOB period and shortly after, I'm sure a quick historical
check
for RAF 242 Sqd. at Colitishall in 1940 will produce some very good
results
for Hurricanes flown by Canadians, with the exception of one very
outspoken
English commander who thought they were the greatest bunch of fighter
pilots
he ever flew with!!

What about after D-Day etc? I guess some flew with the RAF in North
Africa also. This history must be written down somewhere! Any books on
No.6 Bomber Group? Also remember seeing a TV program on the "Lost
Squadron", flying Liberators over the Indian Ocean. Apparently at
squadron
reunions know one remembers these guys as they were so far removed from
the
main campaign!

I'm sorry Ed. I'm not really much of a history buff. Douglas related some
things to me through the years about life in 242, but most was personal
rather than historical information. I think Pete Stickney or one of the
history guys might have some leads for you about Canadian connected RAF
operations after D Day . FWIW, Douglas went into some detail about his
Canadians in his book. That would at least give you a starting point.
