LAC. Leo Bernard Lamb
Royal Air Force No. 73 Squadron
My dad, Leo Lamb served with the RAF during World War II. He signed up in 1940 and went out to North Africa with No. 73 Squadron. On completion of their duties in North Africa, the squadron were then transferred to Italy where the use of Hurricanes was changed to Spitfires. I have traced his movements to Montecorvino (Oct to Dec 1943), to Foggia Main (Dec 1943 to Sept 1944), then onto Canne (Sept 1944 to April 1945). During this spell, detachments were transferred to Hassani in Greece (Sept to Dec 1944), Prkos in Yugoslavia (April to May 1945) plus Brindisi in Italy (May to July 1945).
