Does anyone here know where Air Commodore Mal Gunton is now living? The Bomber Command Association of New Zealand team have lost track of him as he has moved away from his old place in Bethlehem, Tauranga. The only email I had for him was a clear.net one which will no longer work as Clear was shut down.

If you can help, please email me the details at dave_daasnz@hotmail.com

I suspect he may be in a resthome now though, so no longer in White Pages.
