Don't know if he was in Royal Airforce as signed up occupation or would it be National Service in 1950's ?  Have photographs of him in uniform.   Thank you for any help in finding out about him.

His entry on the 1939 register is redacted, are you sure that he is deceased.  If not you need to remove his name from your heading

[LaytonLily]

Don't quite understand what you mean.  He is dead by now.  But wasn't dead when in Airforce.
He would be redacted in 1939 census as I understand when it was digitalised if they thought someone might still be alive at that time, their details were blacked out.

Do you know his date of death?

It's the 1939 register that's being talked about.

[rosie99]

He appears on quite recent electoral registers

Are you assuming he is dead because he was b 1937 or do you know for certain he is?  No death showing up to 2023

Brian Hasker died in 2022 in Spain.   I wanted to know. if possible, was he in Royal Airforce for real or was it conscription.  I see National Service end 1963 and this was in 1950's.   A. . . . website used to have military information but it seems this is now an added payable extra.

Conscripted or not he was in the RAF for real.   The members of my family who were conscripted would be insulted if there service was not taken as "for real" .. Please remember those conscripted serviceman who served and died overseas....their service was "for real".

from Wikipedia.

In the United Kingdom, military conscription has existed for two periods in modern times. The first was from 1916 to 1920, and the second from 1939 to 1960.
