    Hi there I am new here. I could really use some help. My brother got rid of a lot of info about my dad,I just found out because I was asking for some pictures.my dad was in the r.a.f. he was an american who joined before ww2,began. There isa picture of him in a few books,iI was really looking for that book that said ghost planes,he's in that.I'll just give out the info, what I wanted to do is make a print of his picture,and frame it for my grandson.OK here goes: Joseph Michael Kelly . The picture is of him standing on the wing of his plane,and it says little Joe on it,and I think a sexy girl. He lied about his age and was 17 when he joined.the plane he's standing on is a spitfire I think. If anyone out there has any info on him,or a picture I could print out,I would really appreciate,thank god my mom gave a bunch of his stuff to the museums. Thanks so much

    Ken Curtis was the man. He played Dolan in my favorite movie, Mr. Roberts.

    Welcome festus16.

    Your request is a bit of a tall order with such minimal detail. If you can track down the photo he is in it might help others provide info. I'd also recommend you post in the Information Requests area.
