Who was the pilot of the Spitfire VIII jf579?

Post by Zoet »

Hi all,

Can someone tell me who the pilot was from the RCAF Spitfire VIII jf579 (AN0J) from the 417th squadron, Italy, January 1944?

I can't find it on the internet :oops: .

Herold.

It's not that people here are not willing to help, but it's just that spotters primarily have knowledge about aircraft, not about pilots. Sorry.

I wish you luck with your quest!
