F/O Hugh Williamson Martin DFM.
Royal Air Force 78 Squadron

My father has told me numerous stories about my great uncle Hugh Williamson Martin who was in No.78 Squadron. To our delight we have been able to find out a bit about his RAF record. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Medal aged 21 whilst serving with No. 78 Squadron. He was promoted to Flight Sgt on the 1st of May 1942 and his appointment to commission as Flying Officer was on the 16th of May 1946 when he was age 26.
We would love to hear from anyone who knew or served with Hugh.
