[QUOTE="F for Freddy, post: 43332, member: 2923"] Hi Jeanette Ops my mistake,yep there are quite a few names that are very similar with SOE agents. I'm coming at the research from the RAF dropping agents side of things with the 148 special duties squadron that was base in North Africa and then Brindisi in Southern Italy. But I am trying to match the Agents/Missions they dropped to the 148 aircrew. As well as the story of one crew who a friend was a member of. I suggest you look up and join a Yahoo group I am a member of, "specialoperationsexecutive" its ran by a chap called Steven Kippax and is a great forum on all things SOE but as you are finding out there is loads of stuff on Northern Europe especially France, a little on the Balkans but not so much on Italy compare to them. It would be great to be kept informed on how you get on and I would love to know how you Father went into his mission if you find out. I will keep my eyes open for his name and go back over Micheal Lee's book to see what there is on your Father, if you let me have a direct E mail I could scan anything relative and sent it over. All the Best Steve [/QUOTE]
