World War Two / Re: Phot's 10 Squadron

Greetings Ivor. You can have the original photograph, I don't particularly want to hang onto it as it has no family relevance for me. If you send me a personal message specifying an appropriate postal address, I'll send it to you in the next day or two. No charge.

All best,

Nick Miller.

Good afternoon. If anybody's still interested, I have recently come into possession of a group photograph of 10 Squadron, in front of a Halifax bomber, taken at RAF Melbourne, possibly around 1943. I'll gladly despatch it free of charge to anyone who wants it.

All best,

Nick Miller.

World War One / Re: More WW1 Casualty Info

Colin, greetings. My grandfather William George Miller was in the same unit as William Ellis, namely 'D' Battery (4.5" howitzers) 64th Bde RFA, in fact he was wounded on 9 April 1918 during the same action W Ellis was killed in, that is the Battle Of The Lys, second phase of the German Spring Offensive of 1918, otherwise known as Operation Georgette. My grandfather was lucky though, he caught a 'Blighty One' and survived the war, which is how I come to be typing this message!

I've got a fair proportion of the war diaries of 64th Bde RFA photographed, plus some other bits and pieces which may interest you. Please feel free to contact me if you wish via nick316@hotmail.com and maybe we can sort out some information transfer arrangements.

All the best,

Nick Miller.

Hello there, I'd be most interested to hear about the Mapperley village history project too. This is on behalf of my wife, who has 'Bardill' and 'Spendlove' ancestors from there. We're local and have been in the Black Horse at Mapperley a few times, always been intrigued by the framed old photographs on the walls, I assume they're local? Know anything about them?

All the best,

Nick Miller.
