While researching Americans who joined the RCAF back in the 40's, I came across Flt Lt Harold H. Hessenflow, C/2639 as an Instructor for RCAF No. 2
B & G.S., I guess he went his whole time in the RCAF. This warrior passed January 31, 1975 and is buried in Maxwell, Nebraska, May he always be Remembered !
He was Gazzetted on August 14, 1945, for his service
I also found a page that stated he was with the "12 AID", does anyone have any idea what that is ? Appreciate and education on this !
Cheers
George

Thanks Temujin,
I had the last page you posted, and small bits and pieces of his history, but it was the first time I came across someone assigned to No. 12 AID, did not know what that was, thought it was a misprint until finally coming across it.
Hope all is well, Cheers
