I am the only child of Sgt John Frederick Cairney RAE Rear Gunner 148 Squad SOE based in Brindisi. His plane JP 162FS-S FTR Aug 4/5th, 1944 after a mission to drop supplies in Poland. I was only 3 months old when he was KIA.
I have been tracing his brief RAFVR service 1943 to 1944
I grew up in Scotland and the North of England and moved to the USA in 1980.I now live in California.
Married to my husband for 44yrs and have 2 daughters and 4 grandsons.
I am trying to keep the memory of my father alive by gathering as much information as I can about him.
I am very proud of my father and his crew.
