Hi
Good to find a group on the Whitley.

My uncle P/O Andrew Law was a Whitley pilot. He was killed in a
crash (in Z6869 GE-T) in fog when diverted to Acklington on 3/4 Sept
1941.

I have a copy of a diary he kept from joining up in Sept 1939,
through training to his first mission in January 1941, after which
it appears to have been censored. I also have a 3 page write up of a
ditching in the North Sea (in T4266 GE-O) on 17-18 Apr 1941, where
the crew were rescued after 3 days. I have scanned/typed copies of
the diary and ditching if anyone is interested.

I'd be interested to hear from anyone else with information on
Whitleys at 58 Squadron Linton on Ouse.

People listed as crew with him in "Bomber Command Losses 1941" are

Sgt A Whewell, P/O McNeil, Sgt Rose, Sgt C O Steggall, Sgt Kemp, Sgt
Cartledge, P/O Harris, Sgt W H Trewin RCAF, Sgt R L Ward RCAF, P/O E
D Comber-Higgs.

I have a group photo of him with eight other pilots on "No11 course
A Squad" commencing 3 Dec 1940. (H G Sharp, G A Gills, D Matthewman,
L V Rosser, C Stricland, K M Newton, R Carrapiett, K Gray).
