LAC. Wilfred Sydney Barnett

Royal Air Force 104 Squadron

from:Manchester

My father, Wilfred (Sid) Barnett, served in 104 Squadron RAF from Egypt 1942, through North Africa, into Italy in 1943. He served there with initially Wimpeys then B24 Liberators. He finished the war in 1945 flying POW's back to UK. Landed at Brize Norton with a load of POW's and were treated as heros by the reception committee who thought the aircrew, in really scruffy uniforms, were the POW's. In fact the POW's had been given new uniforms, and were overlooked.
