Author

[Mike K]

Years ago, I was mad keen on trout fishing . The local library was where I found a few books written by David Scholes . He is the eminent author on the topic here in Aust. I met him back in 1975, he was no let down, he was just as I'd imagined he would be . He hardly mentioned his WW2 service in his many books . -

Going through the naa.gov.auv on line archives, they have his RAAF RECORDS , over 50 pages of it ! A DFC winner at 21 , and 30 sorties flying Lancasters from Skellingthorpe with 61 squadron .

Here is single page from his records . The sad words on the memorial at Skellingthorpe hit home .
