Vernon S Lilley
Royal Air Force 608 Sqdn.

I served with 608 Squadron, RAF from November 1943 until it was disbanded in late 1944. After a short stint with MEDME Com Sqdn, I was posted with F/O Ken R. Archer (RAFVR) to the British Military Mission to Roumania. Ken was unfortunately killed at Bucharest, after I left there in late 1945. Any news of Ken, or of the history of 608 Sqdn. would be appreciated.
Update: F/O Archer (184570) died on 2nd April 1946, aged 28. He is buried in the Bucharest War Cemetery, 1.D.8.
