Permalink   


Hi, would anyone know what uniform badge would have been wo rn by a wireless operator. My grandad was in this role with 102 squadron from May 1943 to October 1943. He was a sergeant, W/OP and I only have one photo and it isn't in his full uniform and I am getting a tattoo to honour him very soon and would like to get this correct !! Also on his 543 form it has him as a W/OP..AG....... HELP ....stuck on this and realy want to get it right for him more than for me , any help would be very much appreciated . Kind regards ...MARK.
