I have available a super rare period framed Mention in Despatches certificate LG dated 14 Jan 1944 to a RNZAF pilot who was killed in action 3 Jan 1944 along with his entire crew while on Ops to Berlin as a Lancaster pilot with 83 (PFF) Sqd.
The pilot was NZ40776 Flt/Lt L W Munro who had previously completed a tour with 103 Sqd in 1941.
The frame is in excellent order though the hanging hooks have been removed, there are photocopies lightly glued to the rear that have been copied from the excellent reference publications BC Losses 1944 by Chorley & By Such Deeds by Hanson, these can be removed if necessary.
PM with any questions or photo requests, i'm looking for offers on this. Kerry.
