Fleet Air Arm
« on: Friday 27 April 18 16:09 BST (UK) »
Hi
I suspect this question has been asked many times but I am trying to find our about my late fathers service record during WW2.

He didn't talk much about it but I knew he was a Chief Petty Officer in the Fleet Air Arm and spent most of his time in the Pacific on an Auxiliary Aircraft Carrier.

I am assuming his service records will be somewhere but not sure if it's the I.W.M.or the Fleet Air Arm museum, or somewhere else.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards

L. W.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
