This was my grandfather, who was part of 607 sqdn. He was based in Burma 1943 thru 1944. Took part in the Calcutta raid on 5th December 1943. He flew a mark viii spitfire (MA368) and was wingman for M W Coombes over Imphal. He also spent time in Mosquitos, still with 607 sqdn i believe.

looking for any info/diary notes or pics please. An image can be found of him on the rear cover, 3rd from right, back row of "Spitfires Over the Arakan" By Norman Franks.
