Information. No. 15 Elementary Flight Training School was situated in Saskatchewan, Canada. I am trying to no avial to find traces of my Dad's service with the RCAF, RAF and UsAAF during WWII. His name was Maurice Edward Hunt. He was trained in Regina at the #15 Efts and then in York or Yorktown canada where he was awarded his wings. It depresses me to come to the conclusion that he is part of the Lost Legion. He was born October 29, 1920 in Lancaster, Washington, USA. I have no idea if he used an assumed name while in the RCAF. I think not as someone did find some personell cards in his name. He was shot down twice, flew Night Fighters and Spitfires among other aircraft. He had many ribbons which he wore on his USAF uniform but they have vanished. He was discharged from the RAF in 1943. He served as a waist gunner with the USAAF for the rest of the war.    I have two photographs of him wearing an american uniform with RAF wings. Also in his air cadet uniform and two newspaper articles on about his fourth oak leaf cluster while serving as a gunner on an B-17 an another about his being shotdown. Thank you Dayna Hunt UPDATE: I have found out my Dad, Maurice E. Hunt was with the 202 squadron, 11 group, Bigin Hill. Also that he trained to fly spitfires at Grangemouth, Scotland. Also this is copied from his records: From "OFFICER MILITARY RECORD" " 30 Dec 40 to 3 mar 43 RCAF & RAF Service Plt Sq Leader, 122 Aerial Missions; 320 Combat Hrs. 5 En Planes shotdown highest grade W/O 1st Class SN: #39468711 AFSN A01848256" Photographs If you have any Photographs you would like to share please get in touch.
