Flt.Sgt. James Douglas "Douglas" Hamilton

Royal Canadian Air Force 427 Squadron

from:Kenaston, Sask

(d.23rd June 1943)

In reviewing my deceased mother's papers, I found the following information about her fiancé who was killed in the war. He was James Douglas Hamilton (FS) P R102390, killed in action June 23rd 1943 age 22 of 427 Lion Squadron (Ferte Manus Certas). He was a Flight Sergeant Pilot from Kenaston, Sask I am confident, in the accuracy of this information, as my mother had told me about Douglas many years ago, and had given me his jacket, scarf and the telegram announcing his death, which she had been keeping. It may be of use to know that the gentleman went by Douglas, his middle name, and his mother's name was Alice. I have seen a few photos of Douglas among my mother's albums.
