RFC HERO.Sometimes a picture does not say everything.
The IWM has this hero picture in their files but,it doesn't say anything about his brilliant career.Having found,by chance,his medals, then we can see that this officer had a full life flying.
Q 114505 Lieutenant C. F. Collett MC & Bar, Royal Flying Corps. http://media.iwm.org.uk/ciim5/341/636/large_000000.jpg https://www.dnw.co.uk/auction-archiv...&lot_id=232524

Hi Jo,
Thanks for the links. Interesting to note Lt. Collett was born in New Zealand. Cheers, Tinto |
