William Eddie Bardgett | Flight Lieutenant William Eddie Bardgett With No.230 Sqn, flew Sunderlands against the Japanese. Volunteering for duty with the RAF, after training in Canada he crewed up at an OTU in Northern Ireland and eventually flew out to India to join 230 Squadron where he was '2nd Dickie' to Graham Stevens as Captain of Sunderland aircraft P for Peter. He was briefly re-assigned to another skipper when his Captain became ill, serving with Flight Lieutenant Alliot as part of a three aircraft detachment based to the island of Labaun which, after the Japanese surrender, was also home to P-51 Mustangs of the RAAF. Upon his former Captain's recovery, he was reunited with him at RAF Seletar in Singapore where they had earlier taken part in many repatriation flights together ferrying recently released POWs and wounded troops back to India for their trip home. |
