LAC. Clifford Osborne

Royal Air Force 110 (Hydrabad) Squadron

from:South Elmsall

Initially, working in a coal mine, Cliff Osborne was interested in developing a career and joining the Air Force. Despite passing all exams, his papers say not recommended for training in aircraft duties. He felt this assessment was based on his background, not coming from the right type of family.

Initially, he was offered rear gunner which he believed was a death sentence. Joining the radio section he was able to play his part. He travelled through India, Africa and through to Singapore. He worked with many Australians and loved their irreverent sense of humour. Once demobbed he started his journey to emigrate arriving in 1949.
