Nice, Jack! Thanks for sending it along. Do you have any idea what Spartan class he was in? I'll try to see if we have his yearbook.

No idea. I just know he went though flight training there has a RCAF cadet
and did OTU in England before being posed to 165 Sqd when he flew with a number of famous RAF/AAF pilots.
