Do you know where in Egypt RCAF Squadron 417 was based? I think they kept moving their base depending on Axis movement. TIA!! John

Greetings everyone, doing a bit of research on RCAF Squadron 417, Can not find some of the info ! 1) Found 5 pilot's captured, became P.O.W.'s. Can not find aircraft serial # and what happened Any help and assistance will be appreciated ! P.O.W., Flt Sgt J.T. MacLeod, R/153205, RCAF, July 26, 1944 ...

Thank you Phil! Yes, Temujin has been a big help immediately upon me joining the site! Again, much appreciated as the same goes for your site!

Temujin - Wow! Thanks so much for all the great information! Yes, I do have the photos and yes my dad did contribute those to that particular website. Thank you for posting. I find the Ops Records a real treat albeit very straightforward. They do tell a story of their own and I find them fascinating...

Thank you for the warm welcome...and the great information you furnished here on my dad. No, I had not seen this before. Thanks so much! Very appreciative! Cheers! John

Greetings! I'm really excited to have come across this site! It appears to be a huge potential source of information on what I'm looking for! Cutting a very long story short, I've began a late research on my father, P/O John M. Riley just last year. Thanks to today's technology as well as other help...
