June 1943- You and your crew are posted to a new squadron
No. 434 Squadron (Bluenose) RCAF, is forming at RAF airfield Tholthorpe, North Yorkshire.
Every squadron puts forward a few crews - usually rookies - to provide the nucleus for
the new squadron and that's how you have ended up here. In a few days you will fly
your first combat mission.
Being assigned to a brand new squadron has some advantages. The squadron needs new leadership so you have been promoted to Flight Sergeant.
Congratulations, Flight!
