I'm working on Bill Cleland's crew and here is his DSO recommendation: Acting Flight Lieutenant William John CLELAND, DFC (174404) Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, No 156 Squadron. (Pilot/Captain of aircraft; sorties 73; flying hours 363; since previous award, sorties 43; flying hours 201.) This officer has always displayed a fine fighting spirit and great zest for operations. He has a fine record of operational sorties and has always shown outstanding courage and determination, even in the face of heaviest opposition. Many of his missions have entailed the fulfilment of difficult and dangerous duties. He has invariably performed them with great gallantry and efficiency. Flight Lieutenant Cleland has always set a high standard of tenacity and devotion to duty. I have refs for the other crew members' recommendations and will add them in a couple of weeks. |
