408 RCAF Squadron

[Hard Sarge]

anybody got any info on this unit ?

old game had W. Ferris as a WC and CO of the squadron

I doing some hunting down of names and I find a Walter H. Ferris of 608 , but he is a WO ?

(of course, I do find a English airman, W. Ferris, but he is a Flight Sgt, I also find another W. Ferris for the RCAF but he is a Air Gunner)

any ideas ?

(I am working off a list of the dead, so, if W. Ferris didn't get killed, he is not going to show up

I found another decent site, but again, I am working off of dead lists (I really hate to work off of dead lists, they depress me)
