F/O. Arthur Thomas "Joe" Jones MM & Bar MID.

Royal Air Force

from:Nuneham Courtney, Oxon

My Father Arthur Jones,was posted to RAF Linton on Ouse as a Flying Officer in 1939, newly promoted from the ranks. He was the station armament officer at Linton until being posted in April 1943 by which time he had been awarded the MBE and two MID's. No citations can be found as to how he won any of the awards, and next to nothing is known of his time there, although his name appears briefly in 58's Squadron Operations Book although he was part of the base personal, not a member of 58.

We do have his full service records, from both wars. If you have other details about him, or his work I would dearly love to see them.
