209101 Flt.Sgt. Walter Frederick Taylor Royal Air Force from:Torquay Freddie Taylor was my father and I know very little about his war efforts apart from what I have been told by my mother. I was told that he was a rear gunner during the war. I was born in 1946 and during that time he served at Huntingdon and then St Eval in Cornwall until the camp was closed and he moved to St Columb until he was demobbed. I have been told he was 'grounded' after the war due to severe sinusitis and an operation for this condition. I was also told he could not cope with being grounded and was demobbed in the 1950's. I have not seen him since I was 11 so know very little more. He is probably dead now, but I should really like to know more about what he did during the war and where, with whom and when he ended his days. He has a sister now 92, who still lives in Torquay, Devon.
