Alistair McKenzie Wood DFC & Bar.
Royal Air Force 76 Squadron
from:Glasgow
At the time of writing (July 2018) Alistair is still alive and living in California with his wife. He is also survived by his youngest sister, my wife. All five of the siblings were born in Cullen, Banffshire, Scotland and moved to Glasgow about 1929 or 1930. Their father and grandfather were both fish curers in Cullen.
We think his log book is still in the family but if not, I have a scanned each of page in colour as a record of his war service. Alistair was navigator for P/O Elder in 76 Squadron and had to bale out 27th/28th of July 1943 over Shipdham, Norfolk after a raid to Hamburg. He also served with 105 Squadron.
