Flt Sgt. James Henry "Monty" Banks MID.
Royal Air Force 212 Squadron
from:Heston
My father, James Banks was evacuated from Orleans airport, France, Tuesday 18th June 1940. A Dakota landed to pick him up, in his words "a lady". They landed at Heston and he was given immediate leave and returned to RAF Feltwell and given sedative to calm uncontroled shakes. This is all I have discovered written in the margins of The Daily Sketch dated Tuesday June 18th.
