RAF 242 Squadron

I only know a little about my Canadian grandfather's service in Squadron 242 under Douglas Bader and I have been trying to find out more. The MOD sent me three of his service medals he never received, but I have hit a brick wall because he was held by the Japanese in Java. I would like to ask if there are any other avenues that I can go down to try and find some answers as he would not talk about his experiences to me, so I know nothing.
