Sgt. Norman Crowhurst, RAF

[johncrowner]

Is this too vague? Would like to trace service record of my uncle, served in RAF in WW2, Born1921 in the Uckfield area. Only memory of him was a photo of him, sitting at a piano, wearing RAF uniform with sergeants stripes. Died about ten years ago. Anyone help, please? Thanks

WW2 service records are still held by the Ministry of  Defence (in his case the RAF 3rd party Disclosure Team)

Here is how to go about applying:

PS If he was Norman Joseph then his service number was 1640032:

Looks like the right person Max

Freebmd shows him as Norman J Crowhurst b 1921 Uckfield mmn Brooker

Yes that was my route to the possibly right Norman.
