You're Top Poster: #1  | Hi Spidge, some of those names have been covered already. Do you want to cross reference them before we start? What Squadrons were these RAF Aussies in when they died.

You're Top Poster: #3 | I placed them and realised that I had updated another spreadsheet. Only got half way through and went to sleep at the computer and woke up four hours later. Will get there today hopefully.
