On 19th April 1941 at 14 OTU my father flew with a F/Lt Nettleton. Was this the same Nettleton that won the VC a year later?
Looks like the same man. For Valour The Air VCs -Chaz Bowyer W/C J.D NETTLETON November 1939 - 185 Sqn (Hampden) which became 14 OTU 8-4-1940 serving until 26-6-1941 when posted to 44 Sqn ! Mark
Yes. Nettleton had an accident while with 14 OTU when an airman walked into the spinning prop of his Hamden. I have the accident report.
