258168 Sgt. Harold Wigley Royal Air Force 405 Squadron from:Birmingham My father Harold Wigley was posted to 405 Squadron at RAF Pocklington around May 1941 and I think the squadron was formed to operate from there with Wellingtons and later Halifax Bombers. His logged raids start with a raid on Shwartz on May 12th, Cologne on June 2nd, Brest docks on June 4th, and the Big City on December 15th plus many others that year. He told me a story about a Wellington he was flying that overshot the runway on landing and closed the Hull York Road for a couple of days. After that he went to Abingdon as an instructor and was then posted to 100 Group Special Duties. We are only just finding out about that because he told me on a number of occasions that this was still on the secrets restrictions of 75 years, we know he was flying Mosquitos possibly with 169 Squadron at RAF Massingham in Norfolk. He met my mother there and it seems I was conceived somewhere there and later born in Kings Lynn Please type your message:      We recommend you copy the text about this item and keep a copy on your own computer before pressing submit.
