Hi Folks, My name is Keith Hoey. I'm an avid wwii aviation enthusiast and currently serve in the Canadian Forces. I just finished tours flying the CC-130 and am now employed in the Rescue Centre. I'm asking for help from fellow enthusiasts. I have been asked by members of the Military Gallery to assist in locating RCAF Halifax Aircrew that live in Western Canada to help in signing an upcoming Robert Taylor print. The print will also be signed by 2 RCAF members that flew on the Dambuster's Raid. Living in the east has not permitted me to make contacts west of Saskatchewan. Do any of you know someone that wouldn't mind being contacted for this venture?Those that sign are reimbursed for their time. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. Please contact me at khoey98@yahoo.com
Dear Keith. I cannot help with the "signatures", but my daughters father in law Mr Jack Chant was a British Flight Engineer with 425 Squadron flying out of Tholthorpe UK during the Second World War. His skipper was Larry White and he remembers another British Crew Member, Bill Brown. They were shot down over Belgium on the 9th May 1944 and he became a prisoner of war. We have been with him to Belgium and located the farm where he was hidden for a period. Also met the person who found him hiding in a barn who has sadly since passed away. He does not use computers, so I said I would put the detail on line in case there are any members of his crew or any information still available. Hope this might be of interest to you and possibly your research may have turned up anything that may be of interest to him. Regards John N Price (john071039@hotmail.com)
