nigelshipp Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I have recently aquired a set of Gulf war prints released by Squadron Prints around 1991-2. As with a lot of signatures some are unreadable. Does anyone know of a list of the pilots who went to war so i can try to match the names to the writing Jags GR1's F3's Buccs Pumas Regards Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew March Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Um, no, not really, have you thought about contacting specialist RAF Gulf War groups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did some googling..another pilot officer was John Nichol.. I might have gotten the first name wrong ... Okay you will have to read and pick out what you need .. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Granby And for this link below, please scroll down to where it says ROYAL AIR FORCE.. I think you will have to go off on different tangents to suss out your information ..this identifies the aircrafts. http://www.raf.mod.uk/history/BritishForcesinvolvedinOperationGranby.cfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovis Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I have a XV Sqn Tornado print I got from the squadron visit when I was at Laarbruch with the space cadets in 1991 not long after the Gulf War. I handed my print into the squadron to be signed and a few of the names on it can be found in Peters and Nichol's books, Tornado Down and Team Tornado. I'll dig it out later to read some off for you. One I do know is Rupert Clarke, he was shot down and held hostage during the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
