He was killed in an aircraft accicent (when flying for Indamar commercial air-freight in November 1950). On the death recently of my mother, we discovered pictures & logs books from his Air Force days, but we can not find his actual squadron or anything about his time in the Air Force. Could you help me or put me in touch with someone who could... My father's nick name was 'Ginger Bearcroft'. I would be grateful for any information you could give me.
