SAAF Airmen in RAF Squadrons
Whereas seconded bomber pilots may have been in the minority, that small group acquitted themselves very well. Eight flew No 102 Squadron Halifax bombers. Three, Begbie, Carby Thompson and Heiden lost their lives. Major’s Gillett and Watson and Captains Meyer and Rea were awarded the “Distinguished Flying Cross”.
