Hi,
Someone on here seems to have access to service details for RNZAF airmen, just wondering if it's possible to glean any information about my Mothers cousin - Llewelyn Pryce? I'm told he flew (captained) Liberators in the Far East - possibly out of India. That would no doubt suggest he flew with a RAF unit rather than RNZAF. He was definitely a NZer.
Anyone able to offer up any details? Was hoping to be able to pass on info to his children.
...Gibbo

With this information to hand you can request a free copy of the service record from Personnel Records, New Zealand Defence Force, though I understand that there is a long processing backlog at present.
