21 Squadron War Diary

January 27 L.G. 98
"Johnny" Walker, one of our Flight Sergeants has been fortunate enough to be selected for a trip by air to the United States, to undergo a six weeks course on American Aero-Engines. One of the hardest workers among our technical staff, "Johnny” fully deserves the wonderful opportunity that has been given him – but how we all envy him! He left by air for CAIRO today where a Liberator will convey him and two other flight sergeants from South African squadrons to the domain of go-ahead Uncle Sam.‍
