Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the book on Cranswick, it arrived today. On the back cover he is credited with 107 missions but according to AVM Bennets autobiography the number is 143 sorties, thats quite a variation?. One that I will investigate when I get the chance.

I have a copy of T.L.T.W by Wadsworth which provides some very personal insights into the squadron and would be a must read for those interested in the squadron.

Have been doing some work on the web site this weekend and will advise when the first cut is ready.
